Fresh Install: TLS handshake failed

Have you, by chance, done any searching on network share discovery across subnets?
What, exactly, are you trying to do that is not working?
Details matter here. Please be specific.

What he means is all of the service discovery protocols are broadcast or multicast and almost none of those protocols work across routers because routers can not forward the broadcast/multicast traffic, this is by design. Some more clever protocols such as mDNS do actually support discovery across routers but that is because they implement a proxy that listens for and forwards the service announcements across subnets. The avahi package implements mDNS on FreeBSD and I believe also on pfSense.

I am trying to access Unraid SMB shares from my laptop whilst connected via OpenVPN. I cannot do this, I cannot see or access any shared resources.
I have searched for solutions, people on the unRaid forums said that it isan OpenVPN/Freenas problem.

SMB is windows file sharing and it uses broadcast based discovery which doesn't traverse routers as already noted. You can access the shares directly by IP address or host name assuming you have DNS set up properly and your client system can resolve the DNS name of the server hosting the shares.

And people on the pfSense forum are telling you exactly what the problem is.

I am unable to access the shares via IP address. I receive a message 'Access is Denied'.

Sounds like there is probably something on the server preventing access from subnets other than the local network.

I can tell you for sure that I access smb shares from openvpn all the time!! Every day almost.. I could for sure fire up a freenas instance and access it from the vpn. So your saying you can access your freenas webgui? Or via ssh but you can not access your shares?
edit: Well I can tell you 1 thing for sure, just fired up freenas and when set to dhcp it does not set a default route?? So yeah going to be impossible to access it from any other network, like a remote vpn user. You would need to setup default gateway if you want to access it remotely that is for sure.

Ok.. So at work and connected to my vpn.. So you can see I can ping my freenas by name, and traceroute shows I am connected via a tunnel. The latency is high because I have to bounce off a proxy that is in Jax, FL while I am in chicago and then back to chicago where my pfsense is..
But as you can see I can access the share off freenas just fine via name, and even create a folder, etc.

Hello,
I finished installing openvpn and I did not exactly do it wrong, by chance I managed to solve it.
