      Not unless it's within or conflicting somehow eith the others. And you'd still see the packets in the capture on the OpenVPN.

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

        hmm ok, what else can you suggest I try? I do have multiple ovpn instances on SideA, but i can't imagine that would conflict with any of them since they're running on different ports....

          It's not about ports but addresses/networks. They all need to be unique.

                Don't know. I asked for some files in chat. Did you upload those?

                      guess not, no problem. thanks for giving it a shot, i do appreciate it.

                      Just as an update... I thought... well maybe it's one of the packages that's interfering with the traffic... so I've set up a completely vanilla lab on the vmware workstation. The only package loaded on both sides is open-vm-tools....

                      Same exact results.... so it makes me think i'm doing something wrong. I'll keep picking at it....

                      Any other suggestions are welcome.

                        I kind of gave up on the openvpn and went with IPsec... seemed to work as expected on the first try.
