      Post your OpenVPN config.  I have a feeling one of those and/or your nat isn't set up correctly.

        OpenVPN config screenshot attached - not sure how to export the config (or even if it can be done.)

        Really appreciate your help.

          I just opened and then deleted a similar thread(when i saw this one). I'm unable to connect to clients on my lan from my road warrior VPN. I can access the webconfig just fine though.

          I am running 2.0-RC3 (i386) built on Wed Jun 22 00:50:29 EDT 2011

            Is it correct with the subnet mask of 255.255.254.0 in you "push route"command ?

            could you connect to clients connected to the "Local Subnet" with 192.168.70.0/24 ?
            Or is it just a problem with the destination subnet 192.168.10.0/23 (remember subnet hint above)?

              The push route is correct, it is 192.168.10.0/23. That's at the other end of a site-to-site.

              The problem I'm experiencing is connecting to machines on the local 192.168.70.0/24 network.

              The route table on the client is correctly populating - 192.168.70.0/24 and 192.168.10.0/23 are both routed along the openvpn connection.

              wjs - thanks for that info; I was pondering wether upgrading would fix it. Clearly not.

                VPN looks fine, it works fine in general and I doubt wjs's issue is the same cause. You still have blocks showing in your firewall log? If so, post /tmp/rules.debug

                    Rules are correct. What does the output of 'ifconfig -g openvpn' show?

                      Hi cmb - ifconfig -g openvpn results in

                      ovpns1

                      Not much really. Hope that's more useful than it looks!

                        that just validates the server's interface is correctly in the 'openvpn' group, which means the rules apply to it correctly, assuming that is the associated interface and you have one OpenVPN server on that host.

                          Yes - there's only one openvpn server on the box.

                            It appears that the update

                            "2.0-RC3 (amd64)
                            built on Wed Jun 29 18:35:57 EDT 2011 "

                            fixed the issue. Very odd.

                            Thanks for the input, guys.
