hi folks / Hello Forum,

can find an answer for my question since weeks. Maybe you ppl can help
me out?:

-I want that my traffic goes over VPN *only.*
I mean, if the VPN is OFF, then internet traffic connections should be
blocked.- So it does not connect anywhere without the VPN.

(I use vista to connect to the VPN (pptp)).
(So no client application like cisco-vpn etc.)

Any idea how to configure vista for that?
I use the "outpost pro 2009" firewall but there seems not to be such a
configuration-rule :\

Any idea which Firewall can do or better: how to configure it in vista?
Or is there any application for that?

Try to help me ppl

Well, in theory you could block all outbound connections at the firewall in
the Public profile, except for the outbound connections you'll need to
establish your VPN. Sadly, that's not going to work either, because Windows
applies the least-permissive profile to all network connections, including
your VPN. Windows 7 allows multiple active profiles on the firewall, so you
could wait a while, or look for third-party solutions.

Alun.
