        @Cry:

        For anything more precise you'll need to provide a diagram of your networks, how they are connected and what IP ranges you're using.

          you will also want to remove your actual public IPs/FQDNs from your examples above.

            On one pfSense box I have the following OpenVPN configurations:

            As a server for Road Warriors
            Dynamic IP: yes
            Address pool: 10.99.254.0/24
            Local network: 192.168.100.0/24
            Client-to-client VPN: yes
            Cryptography: BF-CBC (128-bit)
            Authentication method: PKI
            CA cert
            Server cert
            Server key
            DH parameters
            TLS
            LZO compression: yes

            As server for Site-To-Site OpenVPN
            Address pool: 10.11.12.0/24
            Remote network: 192.168.200.0/24
            Cryptography: BF-CBC (128-bit)
            Authentication method: Shared key
            Shared key cert
            LZO compression: yes

            My routing issue is:
            From Site 1 I can reach hosts on Site 2 and vice versa.
            From Road Warrior I can reach hosts on Site 1.
            I want to be able to reach hosts in Site 2 from Road Warrior.

            Could you help me ?

              It would be much, much, easier to help you if you'd provide the information we ask for.

              I'm guessing that Site 2 doesn't know how to route to the Road Warrior LAN.

                  I'll say it slightly differently - have you configured the routers at Site 2 so that they know how to route to the Road Warrior subnet? They'll need a static route for 10.99.254.0/24 with a route through the Site 2 OpenVPN server's LAN IP.

                    I was told this arrangement isn't possible to have OpenVPN clients to one LAN have their traffic pass through another OpenVPN to another LAN… so I just setup more OpenVPN clients and servers.... it would be nice if each site could only need 1 OpenVPN...but I never got that working!

                      That's not actually true.
                      I have this exact setup working.

                      It's really a matter of setting up static routes on every router involved, so every devices know where to send traffic to.

                        It is perfectly possible - I've done it and I know some folks who have an intra-site VPN that they use daily without problems.

                        As GruensFroeschli said, it's just a matter of getting the routes right.

                          I don't follow. The site to site openvpn comes up and the routes are setup. I have a client-to-site VPN on the same pfsense and I ass the correct push route statement to the openvpn configuration.

                          Client VPN traffic goes from openvpn to pfsense first hop, but then no further.

                          How could I add a route for this?

                            The other side of the site-to-site knows nothing about the roadwarrior subnet.
                            –>you need a static route to make the roadwarriors known.
