This patch unfortunately doesn't solved my problem. Can you give me some
advise how can I further investigate this problem? I really wouldn't like to
lower the MTU or switch on the PMTU Black Hole Detection on all of the
machines communicate thru VPN tunnels. The main problem is, that is not a
PMTU issue. It looks like if I run any service on the gateway's local IP
address will be unreachable because the reply IP packet is sent thru the
tunnel instead of the local subnet.
