I am having issues accessing remtote resources using the Cato VPN client. The subnet that I am connecting to via VPN looks like 

192.168.1.0/24
192.168.2.0/24
...

And my home network wifi interface / network looks like 

wlp58s0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        inet 192.168.1.98  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 192.168.1.255

when I attempt to acess 192.168.1.11 I get a server address IP could not be found error. I believe the issue is that 192.168.1.11 is being looked for locally on my home network, instead of over the VPN. One solution would be to change my home network to something else like 192.168.7.0/24 but I'm wondering if there are any other options?

The output for ip route with the client active is

default dev tun0 
default via 192.168.1.1 dev wlp58s0 proto dhcp metric 600 
45.62.183.62 via 192.168.1.1 dev wlp58s0 
169.254.0.0/16 dev wlp58s0 scope link metric 1000 
172.17.0.0/16 dev docker0 proto kernel scope link src 172.17.0.1 linkdown 
192.168.1.0/24 dev wlp58s0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.98 metric 600 
192.168.1.4 dev tun0

Without the vpn ip route shows

default via 192.168.1.1 dev wlp58s0 proto dhcp metric 600 
169.254.0.0/16 dev wlp58s0 scope link metric 1000

As per this article, I am able to get nautilus integration with google drive and can manually copy files into google drive via the GUI, however I would like to be able to write a small shell script to do backups periodically via cron. I cannot seem to find where this is actually mounted?

Via nautilus I see it at google-drive://[email protected]/ however am a bit confused how this is actually connected/mounted so nautilus can see it and where I can cp files to?

mount mountpoint google-drive
