That is not supported anymore, use a current release.

uci del network.globals.ula_prefix
uci commit network
/etc/init.d/odhcpd disable
reboot

OpenVPN (or rather OpenSSL) in 12.09 has several known security
vulnerabilities.

That is because there is no route to the clients LAN via the clients VPN
IP 10.8.0.6. Take a look at
https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/RoutedLans.

I know that people love to blame firewalls for any network problem but
in general you can roughly categorize the problem like that:

If you get no ping result at all or if you get "Destination network
unreachable" then you have a routing problem.

If you get "destination port unreachable" then your traffic is firewalled.
