      I have a VPN connection as a secondary WAN with hosts being routed through the VPN via policy routing, all of which is working great.
      I am trying to port forward p2p traffic on 41707 to a specific VM (192.168.0.38) through the VPN but can't seem to get it working.
      I can see traffic entering the the VPN gateway via a packet capture but it doesn't appear to be hitting the client VM, instead I get a bunch of TCP re transmission packets.
      My current rules are here. Any help would be appreciated.
      Cheers.

        Be sure the incoming connections are NOT matched by rules on the OpenVPN tab.

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

          That was it, I changed destination and gateway to my WAN instead of wildcards and it all started working. Cheers.!
          OpenVPN rule for future reference.
