Hi Jeff, as you put so much work into your post on the forum I did not want to hit you with an "off the cuff" answer ... but I can, at least, see more clearly your situation.
Also, it seems to me, you have all the necessary tools and knowhow to implement the solution yourself .. which you have .. more or less .. ie: a "fully routed" solution .. which you claim does not work ? Quote: I added a static route on my default gateway (a PfSense box) to redirect any VPN network traffic back to the VPN box, which I believe should send it back through the tunnel to the point of origin. However, this did not resolve my issue, so I must be mistaken about my routing somewhere, or there is something else that I have not considered What you have not considered is .. pfsense .. we do not support it. As I have had a similar issues with different routers (and pfsense) I will add this as a pointer: Not all /routers or Operating Systems/ are created equal. RFC compliancy is extremely optional .. Check all your Vendor's documentation .. Run a packet sniffer to verify their often bold and inaccurate claims .. (Example: http://www.wired.com/2015/12/juniper-networks-hidden-backdoors-show-the-risk-of-government-backdoors/ ) The point being: Check you have "ICMP redirect support" throughout. Otherwise, add the routes to the clients that need it .. manually or from some other central configuration system. Just my2c .. it worked for me. Note: OpenVPN cannot help with your routers etc Note: ICMP redirect is often considered to be a security risk! PS: You did not include any logs on your forum post .. and .. as (*currently) I am helping mod the forum I am currently holding off a misguided reply which has been offered to your forum question. Presumably you would prefer to add the logs of a connection which *does not work* as expected .. first ;) Enjoy the journey .. the destination maybe disappointing ;) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Boyce" <jbo...@meridianenv.com> To: <openvpn-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Tuesday, January 05, 2016 6:34 PM Subject: [Openvpn-users] Issue getting to LAN behind VPN Server > Greetings - > > I have a detailed description of my issue posted over on the Forum, but > am not getting any responses.
