Linux app split tunneling

Sometimes picking the app from the pre-populated list does not work. This list is populated from the .desktop files on your system, and they may point to a shell script or a launcher. This happens most frequently with Firefox on various distros (Fedora, Mint, others). In this case, the script or launcher would be split tunneled rather than the actual app, which would appear to have no effect.

If this happens, find out the actual binary that is running when the application is run, e.g. with ps aux | grep firefox. This may tell you that firefox is actually /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin. You can then use the + icon in Split Tunneling / Apps and add this path manually.
