Ehr X.X.X.76 ? Where does that fit into the above mentioned IPs ?

This sounds suspiciously like a routing issue.
Try  ip route show and/or route -n to see if routes to the desired destinations
are present on both sides.

I don't get your test either, you're using entirely different IPs.
You should try to ping 192.168.20.1 from the client machine.
Or to test server->client ping 192.168.20.2.
