is it possible to differentiate the packets that go over the 
VPN by some IP parameter (src/dst address/port, proto) from 
the packets that go over the regular network? If so you can 
set up a routing table using the iproute2 tools. I won't say 
it's easy to set up. Here's a script I used to send packets 
from a particular IP:port over one network, while sending 
all the rest to a default gw.
