I thought the responses were dealt with by firewall masquerading and nat-ing.
Wrong again.

Oh, you meant *I* would be error-prone. That I completely understand! ;-)

If I'm reading that right, I think that's *almost* it ...
When I'm eventually done I need (1), (2) & (3) to be true & active concurrently:
(1) Bi-directionally, uniquely communicate across the vpn between specific
hosts/services
local_lan:BoxA:serviceA:10001 -- vpn -->
Location1:Router:serviceX:10010
Location1:Router:serviceX:10010 -- vpn -->
local_lan:BoxA:serviceA:10001
(2) Local services communication to/from the internet over the vpn thru
Location1's external interface
local_lan:BoxB:serviceB:20001 -- vpn --> Location1's external
eth1:20001 --> internet
internet --> Location1's external eth1:20001 -- vpn -->
local_lan:BoxB:serviceB:20001
(3) and fallbacks
local_lan* --> Location2's external eth1 --> internet
Location1* --> Location1's external eth1 --> internet
> As said, this can be done by adding a network route ...
Iiuc then I need ALL of
Routes in Location1's openvpn config
Static Routes on Location1's router ## ( or can these two all be done
as routes & iroutes
Static Routes on Location2's router ## in Location1's openvpn config
and ccd/client-config? )
Static Routes on Location1 lan's BoxA & BoxB
Is that headed in the right direction?
This stuff is hard!
Dave
