      I can’t ping 192.168.33.10 from 192.168.34.2

      192.168.34.2 is the VPN client – It is connected and got TUN IP address from tunneling network 192.168.34.0/24
      192.168.33.10 is a local computer on the LAN interface (192.168.34.0/24)

      This is my first OpenVpn server on PfSense.
      I guess that I am missing something basic  -  Could anyone point me in the right direction to setup my OpenVpn server for this ???
      I want to be able to ping from 192.168.34.xx (tunnel)  to 192.168.33.xx (LAN) ..

        Can you ping the LAN interface address on the 192.168.33.xx network?

        If so, check the local firewall (think windows firewall) on the destination host address you can't ping.

        Did you add pass rules on the OpenVPN group tab to pass the traffic?

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

          Thanks!

          Windows firewall…  Should have guessed..
          Now ping and Windows remote desktop from VPN client to LAN is working  :)
