First off, I'm a newbie here and I've already seen several "can connect, can't ping" threads and can't seem to figure out a solution to my problem, so I'm sure it's something easy.
Now for the question.
I have OpenVPN setup on FreeBSD 10 x64 and I have one test client (Fedora). OpenVPN starts fine and Fedora connects to the server and get's an IP address. But my server can't ping the clients and the clients can't ping the server.
Here is my server.conf in it's entirety. Also, fwiw, the client has the firewall disabled and this is a Fresh install of FreeBSD 10. The only other port I've installed is samba. The server doesn't have a firewall yet as one isn't installed and enabled by default with FreeBSD.
