I have a remote desktop connected in a single-point OpenVPN connection
to my office pfSense 1.2.3.
That desktop can ssh/http/imap/whatever to any host in the office LAN.
Any host in the office LAN however cannot ping/ssh/http/whatever to
that remote IP.
The only system in the office that can ping the remote is the pfSense
box itself.
If I traceroute to the remote box' openvpn address from pfSense, it
shows one hop. If I traceroute from another box to the remote openvpn
IP, it goes out over the public routers to oblivion.
What do I need to do to make pfSense take packets for this LAN and
shove them down the openvpn tunnel? The routes seem right. The
pfsense router is the default route on every machine on the office
LAN.
Relevant route info from pfSense box:

All the while there is an SSH connection from 192.168.60.6 to this
machine, so clearly it can talk to the remote end just fine somehow.
