Hello! I am having a hard time getting OpenVPN to work with Minecraft.

I am thinking about buying a VPN (from Private Internet Access to be precise) and I want to get all of my programs to work with it first. I have OpenVPN Client installed, and I am testing with VPNBook (US Bundle).

Here are my steps:

1. Start OpenVPN client
2. Connect to VPNBook
3. Start the Minecraft launcher. If it makes a difference, I start it with Steam, but it fails with and without it.
4. I choose the Vanilla profile. I usually use mods, but it fails with both. I will be willing to install additional mods, or add additional JVM arguments if needed.
5. I click the 'Play' button.
6. Minecraft loads, and I click the Multiplayer button.
7. Every single one of the servers says 'Cannot connect to server'. When I try to connect to it, is still fails. If I do not use the VPN with it, they are all fine.

Those are my steps, and sorry if this is in the wrong place.

Thanks in advance for any help! (If I get this to work, I may write a tutorial for others, and add you in the credits)

Bump! And sorry if this is in the wrong section.
