Technically, by virtue of VPN, at least Microsoft VPN, all internet traffic should be routed over the VPN already.. simply by the way VPN works.
The issue is most likely lies in your VPN configuration. A firewall restriction, or a DHCP issue.


However, you could use a Proxy server - set the VPN clients to use a proxy server and configure a Linux Proxy server on your LAN. When connected via VPN, they will send all internet traffic to the proxy, thus sharing your internet connection.
