Hi Wang,

We specialy got two Internet connections, one is only for the OpenVPN (it is 
heavily used) and second for everthing else.
I will give a try to PREROUTING stuff  right away.

What do mean : But I don't think you need to use MARK to do policy routing. 
It's a little overkill.

Do you another suggestion than iptables/MARK?

Regards

Remus
