My new headcanon is that you're ininewcrow's wife, and your comment is super passive aggressive

Sorry, I forgot to reply sooner >.<

I've been trying to get my head around this and also looking into Docker containers with Gluetun, as that looks a bit easier to start with. I think for the moment I'm going to go down the Docker route, and at least get the bulk of the programs separated, and give myself some breathing space to learn a bit more.

Docker isn't ideal, as not everything has a Docker version, but the main programs that I originally mentioned do, and it will let me open the Minecraft servers to the kids in the extended family, especially as it's getting colder and darker here.

I just want to say thank you to you, @[email protected], @[email protected], and everyone else who's helped :)

I'm not giving up on this, I'm just going a bit more towards the basics and learning to walk before I try to run. This switching from Windows malarkey is hard work! ;)

Thanks for replying :)

I think I'm getting it, but my brain is definitely pickled at this point :D

I've also found this post and a Stack Exchange thread to go with it, and it's sinking in slowly

I need to go to bed for the night though, I've just realised that it's gone 3 am :o

Thank you :)

The reply from @[email protected] below lead me to the man page for ip netns here:

https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man8/ip-netns.8.html

As far as I understand it, I could run programs like this:

ip netns exec vpn ~/qbittorrent/start.sh

ip netns exec clear ~/minecraft/start.sh

but I can't figure out how to get the VPN to only run under the namespace. When I run it now, it reroutes all connections through it. I've got an OpenVPN connection that I've set one of my network connections to connect to automatically, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. As soon as I connect the VPN, everything goes through it.

I'm still reading though, so hopefully I'll figure it out :)

I might be wrong, but I'm sure I remember reading that he offered to walk away and let them continue the show when the allegations first came to light

🎶 With beady eyes and pointy ears, he really gets on Sisko's nerves, but wants him as a friend all of his own

He winds up Worf, he annoys Dax, Garak will put him in a sack, they want to kill that man they call Weyoun 🎶

Apologies for the slow reply :)

These are the things that I don't understand. When you say I need to specify the destinations, does that mean the destination of the traffic, like lemmy.dbzer0.com, or the destination network interface like tun0 or enp2s0?

I'm searching for split tunnel VPN, but the majority of results are either sales sites, or Stack Overflow with no confirmed answers.

I've been having a bit more luck with this page after searching for Jet's answer below:

https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man8/ip-netns.8.html

but I'm still confused >.<

Not if it stops my head from exploding :D

Apologies for the slow reply :)

I'm reading up on this at the moment. If I'm understanding it correctly, I would run that command to launch a program, but could I use it for something that launches at startup?

My Minecraft and Qbittorrent instances start automatically, so could I change them to something like

ip netns exec vpn ~/qbittorrent/start.sh

ip netns exec clear ~/minecraft/start.sh

or change the application's autostart Command box to ip netns exec vpn qbittorrent %U if the current entry is just qbittorrent %U

Do these make sense?
