For a moment I thought that Network Manager may be assuming a point-to-point 
topology for
the VPN instead of the "topology subnet" as specified in the server.conf, so I 
did try to
'push "topology subnet"' to the clients, but it didn't help: without the 'push 
"route-ipv6
.."' above, the client is still missing the route to the subnet.
