      Hi all!

      I have just finished installing my pfSense box, and following some of the guides on the AirVPN forum (https://airvpn.org/topic/17444-how-to-set-up-pfsense-23-for-airvpn/) I managed to get this puppy working great. Everything running through the router is nicely secured within an AirVPN connection. The only issue I have now is that I do not know how I can get the box up to allow remote OpenVPN access to my server which is sitting behind the box. I already tried some of the 'standard' OpenVPN guides with the wizards, but connection keeps timing out.

      I have currently a DDNS set up pointing to the public IP of my ISP's router. I also set up an 'Exposed Host' rule on the ISP's modem to allow all traffic through to the pfSense box's IP address.

      You guys have any ideas how I can set this up?
