cannot reach the site via OVPN, accesible from the server

Post by sharper » Tue Aug 10, 2021 12:31 pm

Dear Community,

Seeking for help. I've set up OpenVPN server using famous DigitalOcean guide and works perfectly form every device (see server.conf)
However, there is one specific site (or maybe at least one that I know of) that is not allowing web access from client devices.

I would have thought that its the site's policy blocking server ip range or something, but it's perfectly accesible from server itlsef (and from the client in the disconnected state using the default route).
Another wierdness is that pings are going fine from connected client devices, and tracing rout shows that it's indeed using OVPN as a gateway.

Other SSL and http sites are working OK.

I would appriciate any idea to check :)
