I quote : "Limitations within the Linux or UNIX operating system prevent communication with IP addresses assigned to the network adapter locally bridged from the VPN side (Virtual Hub side). The cause of this restriction lies with OS's internal kernel codes rather than with the SoftEther VPN".. Check out this link : https://www.softether.org/4-docs/1-manu ... al_Bridges

Yeah that's not what he said.
He has 2 VM's - that are not running softether. These are clients on respective side of the tunnel.
They cannot ping each other.
That is interesting. Any ideas?
