Hello Bossman,
As root you should be able to access all files. It is very odd that you are not able to.
Regarding the issue that you cannot connect to your VPN server outside of your network, most commonly that is because you have mistakenly configured the client to connect to the private IP address of the server. That will work as long as you are in the same network where that server is, but it will not work outside of your network. To solve this you need to open the necessary ports on your router using port forwarding or NATting, whichever your router prefers to call it, so that a connection started by the client on the public IP address of the router will be sent through to your VPN server. You then need to ensure the VPN client contacts that public IP address. People often use a DNS address for this like vpn.mycompany.com which resolves to that public IP.
Kind regards,
Johan
