Problem1: ovpn clients cannot ‘ping’ each other when configured for ‘fixed’ leases.

Observation: there’s no route for x.x.x.y by default

Solution: edit xxx.ovpn on clients side and add:

route x.x.x.y 255.255.255.0

Problem2: opvn clients cannot ping clients on the green network

observation: the packets are not natte’d

solution: on ipcop, execute:

iptables -t nat -A CUSTOMPOSTROUTING -s 10.0.2.0/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE

Where 10.0.2.0 is your OpenVPN Network Information and eth0 is your green LAN card
