Hi,

To get access to my files on some samba server, I have to set up a VPN connection. However, some sites are blocked by the VPN server (like rapidshare). So everytime I want to access such site, I have to unmount my sambadisk, disconnect the VPN and then reconnect and mount again.

I can get around this issue by running windows in vmware. I can set up a VPN connection in windows, while the traffic from my linux host doesn't go through this VPN. So then I can access my sambafiles in windows (through vmware) and visit the blocked sites in linux at the same time...

I haven't found any better solution so far, but maybe someone can help me to find one without have to run vmware?

thanks in regard!
