I am trying to get an OpenVPN server to grant access to the rest of the
LAN it is on.  I'm using tunnelling not bridging (TUN not TAP).  The
server has one NIC.  The server LAN also has a WINS server on it.  The
server and the LAN are behind a hardware firewall.

The client can connect o.k., and if I disable the server software
firewall, the client can ping both the TUN interface IP and the server
LAN IP.  The server can ping the client.

Using server.conf, I have the server pushing the LAN route to the
client, as well as a route to the WINS server.  I can see the route to
the server LAN if I do route print. I can see the WINS server info on
the client if I do ipconfig /all.

I have ipforwarding set up on the server eth device.  

Do I need to set forwarding up somehow on the TUN interface?  

Do I need to do anything else on the firewall besides routing the
OpenVPN port?
