Hi,
I've setup OpenVPN and DDNS to access some ports over the internet and locally, through the forwarded VPN addresses ports.
I managed to get access when connecting remotely through the internet, but when I'm trying to access this locally through the DDNS or WAN's IP addresses I receive time out errors. To note accessing the local addresses - VPN or not - works fine, also switching the forwarded ports to the non-vpn address also works fine... Checking the system logs, doesn't seem to reveal anything...
I tired some of the solutions a look through the these posts:

But had no luck. Weirdly, I've done this before with few issues (though with a hosted domain instead of DDNS), I'm not sure if I've missed something obvious... :/
My router's an EA6900, AsusMerlin 386.10.
Many thanks for any help!

Scenario: have openvpn server running on merlin router at office. File server is behind the router. I am able to log in to the server from a windows 10 client through OpenVPN GUI. The client can reach the file server by using the office LAN's local DNS Name (fileserver.office). I then set up a...
