GNU/Linux UFW VPN kill switch tutorial

This is a quick guide for setting up a kill switch using UFW (Uncomplicated FireWall). It is assumed you are using OpenVPN and optionally Network-Manager with network-manager-openvpn.

1. (Optional) IP Addresses

Before we can start we're going to need the IP address (or the IP addresses) of your VPN so that we can whitelist those later on, write them down. They are obviously going to be different for every VPN and VPNs with multiple servers, so I'll leave this up to you.

2. Install UFW

On some systems UFW is installed and enabled by default (Ubuntu, for example). Installation procedure is going to be different for every distribution of GNU/Linux, but it's usually something like

#!/bin/bash

# ldd drop-in replacement for cross-compilation toolchains.

# This file is a slightly modified version of xldd.in from
# crosstool-ng 1.22.0

# In order to use it, copy it in same directory than other
# toolchain binaries and rename it with same tuple. 
# (i.e. /opt/arm-sysmic-linux-gnueabihf/bin/arm-sysmic-linux-gnueabihf-ldd)

How to connect an iOS device to your computer via a SOCKS proxy

Say you're running a virtual machine on your work computer. Say this machine, for whatever reason, can only connect to the internet over NAT - as in, it does not get it's own IP address. Say this VM is running a webserver, and you need a device outside of your computer to connect to it.

If only there was a way to get your work computer to 'share' it's network, so that you could get at that VM… Here's how you do it!

For all instructions, I assume your work computer is a mac

1. Get your computer's IP address:
