I was not doing anything wrong, it's simply a routing issue with the host you are vpning through. A small tweak to the /etc/hosts file, and I am fine. So now I am using OpenVPN and the NetworkManager plugin. One mouse click and I am tunneled! I figured it out!

Pro: - damn easy to set up - gives you just another interface, no fiddling with applications - works in a lot of hotspot areas as well... Contra: - Slow, low bandwidth - Legal grey area, depending on service and country, I guess I wouldn't want to live without it anymore.

Tsocks is nice in that it uses LD_PRELOAD, and so you don't have to reconfigure all your apps to use a proxy. I’ve used ssh SOCK5 proxy + tsocks for this kind of thing.

I also made a `gitssh` scriptthat enables SOCKS proxying in git as well, so after I run it, every next git push is tunneled (I remember I found information on how to do this by googling for git socks proxy or something alike) In those cases I usually setup an SSH server listening on port 80 on my home server; then I do `ssh -D 12345 my.server.addr` and launch `tsocks appname` for every application I need to use (you have to configure tsocks first to use localhost:12345 as SOCKS proxy).
