Hello,

  I'm using PfSense 2.1.4 on an Alix system with 3 networks, one WAN
and two different LANs.

 On this PfSense box, I've setup two OpenVPN VPNs, in peer-to-peer mode
with pre-shared keys, one with a TCP access, the other with more
classical UDP. For these two VPNs, I have external clients (not
running PfSense, but OpenVPN) which successfully connect to my PfSense
box. From my system, located on a private LAN connected to one of the
two PfSense's LAN interfaces (I'm using gateways to send back traffic
to this private lan), I can access to Internet, and also to the
client OpenVPN systems, and their private LANs as I added routes for
this in the OpenVPN configuration.

I would like now to access my system from these client OpenVPN systems,
but it doesn't work now, and I don't understand why :
I can do 'ping <my private LAN address>', the ping get an answers, but
if I try an SSH connection, I can't access to my local system from
these client OpenVPN systems, and on the PfSense box, when looking in
Firewall tab in Status->System logs, filtering on my private LAN
address/port 22, I find the connection packets (TCP Syn) are blocked :


Act     Time    If      Source  Destination     Proto
block   Feb 17 12:29:14         ovpns2  10.0.9.2:42233  172.22.22.41:22         
TCP:S

When clicking on the 'block' icon, I get :
The rule that triggered this action is:
@5 block drop in log inet all label "Default deny rule IPv4"
 
I've tried to allow any traffic from the OpenVPN networks in Firewall Rules 
without change. If I try also the 'Easy Rule' in System Logs/Firewall to add a 
rule to allow this connections, it doesn't change, the connections are still 
blocked :-(

I didn't use named interface for OpenVPN servers, could it be helping for my 
problem ?

If you have any advice, or need more information, please tell me !

  With regards,
        Fred.
