Hi. I'm assuming this is quite useful together with selective routing and getting Transmission-daemon to use a VPN. But I'm not 100% up to speed in where to put this and wether or not my interface is ppp0 or tun11. Would you mind helping me out a little?
I know how to make the file executable and to navigate around the system, so I'm not in need of THAT much help :)
