OK. I am willing to learn but just need a pointer in the direction of what I need to learn.
I have a small Debian home server. It runs, inter-alia, a web and mail server and a download manager.
I wish to tunnel my download manager through a paid VPN service for anonymity.
I have successfully connected my server to the VPN service and have downloaded through the service. The service creates a tap0 interface on my server and ALL services on my server are then routed through this interface. The issue is, that because ALL services are running through the tap0 interface and VPN service my webserver and mail server become unavailable – due to the IP being supplied by the VPN service being a shared IP.
What I want to do is route only the download manager through tap0 but leave my web and mail server routed through eth0.
Can someone please give me a lead on how to do this?
Many thanks in advance.

I think, if your server has a public ip on eth0, then web and mail will respond to queries to the interface from which packet came. Also bind web and mail to the eth0 interface.
