      I'm having an issue with accessing a server behind a pfsense in a multi-site configuration.

      There is one main site with a static ip. The remote sites are dynamic. This cannot be changed easily.

      There is one server that was moved to one of the DHCP sites that collects data from the other sites. This works fine.

      The sites are connected through OVPN.

      Where I'm running into an issue is with an OVPN client. We have someone that needs to access the server from outside the network. The OVPN client connects to the main site with the static IP with no issue. Anything on the main site can be accessed. Because the server is located at a remote site I cannot access the server from the OVPN client.

      I'd appreciate any insights into enabling communication with this server.

      Thanks

        On the remote site where the server resides go to the OpenVPN settings for the site2site tunnel and add the access servers tunnel network to the "Remote Networks".
        And in the access servers settings you have to add the remote network or only the server IP (in CIDR notation) to the "Local Networks".

        Also ensure the firewall rules allow the access on both boxes.
