Hi Bonno

With all this educational commentary, I've been trying to piece it all together.

I was surprised to learn that I CAN set up all the routes just in the OpenVPN 
configs.  Sure makes it cleaner in principle!

I've been doing this step by step and have demonstrated to myself pieces of 
routing so that communications are working.  One in particular is being kind of 
stubborn :-/  Or I'm being thick.

For this case

        Internet
            |
            |
            |   ext: A.B.C.D
        Router/Firewall + OpenVPN Server
            |   tun: 10.99.99.1
            |   int: 10.0.0.1
            |
            |
            |   ext: X.Y.Z.W
        Router/Firewall + OpenVPN Client
            |   tun: 10.99.99.2
            |   int: 192.168.0.1
            |   int: 10.10.10.1
            |
            |--------------------------
            |                         |
        MyDesktop                  OtherPCs
         192.168.0.2                (192.168.0.3+/24)
         10.10.10.2

from MyDesktop, ping over the vpn TO my Openvpn Server's internal IP

        ping -c1 -I 10.10.10.2 10.0.0.1

works OK.

But ping over the vpn TO the external 'net
        
        ping -c1 -I 10.10.10.2 google-public-dns-a.google.com

times out

        1 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 0ms

That extras step of going 'out' the Server to the 'net is not getting a reply 
back.

What (i)route in which OpenVPN config (server, server/ccd/client, client) would 
take care of that?

Thanks,

Dave
