Oh, I see now. You're OpenVPN link is on the router, not the device. Of course. Silly me. In that case, my recommendation is to move the OpenVPN link to the single device that should have access. This is more standard and would be the most secure option.
As others have suggested, you could assign a specific IP address to the device and then use IP tables (try webmin if you don't care to learn yet another mind numbing syntax) to allow that one device through, but this is not terribly secure. Filtering on MAC would not be significantly better. If you are not worried about your network and just want to keep other machines from accidentally getting through your VPN link, this would be fine. _______________ Alan Johnson a...@datdec.com On Fri, Dec 28, 2012 at 11:31 AM, Ken D'Ambrosio <k...@jots.org> wrote: > On 2012-12-28 11:26, Alan Johnson wrote: > > There should be an option in your OpenVPN client to make your VPN >> gateway you default.
