I have an OpenVPN config that I use on my Windows XP box and on my Ubuntu machine.

When I use it with my Windows machine, I can connect to the VPN and access sites on the VPN, and the internet as normal. When I use it on my Ubuntu box, when connected to the VPN, I can only access internal sites - No internet access at all.

I'm sure there is a way to configure OpenVPN on Ubuntu to allow internet connections, but I can't figure out how.

Found it - The option is under "IPv4 Settings", "Routes", "Use this connection only for resources on its network".
