Has anyone successfully installed VUSE in ZORIN? I am running the lite version but can't figure out how to install this program. I know I read somewhere it was compatable with ubuntu. Apparently it has the ability to disconnect the internet connection if your VPN disconnects which is really what I am looking for.

Thanks

Are you talking torrent manager? I only use Deluge.

Yes I currently use Deluge also but as I stated I wanted some way to have my internet shut down if the VPN is disconnected. Any suggestions regarding this?

Just done a quick search - not sure if this is looking at the opposite of what you are after - please advise:

Thanks, I have been searching the net for days and have not come across the two links you provided. The first one sounds good but way to complicated for me. The second one seems to be talking about what I want to do. My current problem is I can't figure out how to install VUSE. I downloaded VUSE but per thier instruction I can't get it installed.
Im going to try the "sudo apt-get install vuse" and see what happens

Thanks again

Another person also suggested the Getdeb repository, I was avoiding that due to the hearing that some of the tweaked programs available from repository didn't work quite right. But I am running out of options so I'll give it a try
