Well, it seems that the problem is not constrained to just the tunnel I was
talking about above. That box (let's call it gatekeeper) had 2 tunnels. For the
problem I described above gatekeeper acts as the server that routes my wireless
traffic to the local network (through that tunnel that no longer works).

There was another tunnel in which gatekeeper is the client. That tunnel runs
over the local network and there are absolutely no firewall restrictions between
the hosts on my LAN. I mount NFS shares over that tunnel.

While I was trying to troubleshoot the wireless tunnel, the NFS tunnel was still
up and working. Then I decided to take down the NFS tunnel and try to re
establish as a test. Sure enough that tunnel is now broken too and fails with a
TLS error! 

It seems that gatekeeper lost the ability to do TLS handshakes both as an
OpenVPN client and as an OpenVPN server... but why?

Thanks.


Val
