I had setup an OpenVPN server in Windows Server 2003 successfully. The server has a public IP address and is listening on its default port.

My client (on WinXP) works flawlessly as well.

I then added a second TAP adapter on the Server in order to add a second VPN interface, as to allow another client to connect concurrently to the same LAN.

The LAN I'm accessing is 10.3.1.0/24, so I defined its first VPN interface as 10.3.2.1/24 and the client as 10.3.2.2. No problem there.

The second interface is defined as 10.3.3.1/24 and another client as
10.3.3.2, but it seems not to be able to reach the LAN as 10.3.2.2 does!

I can ping from 10.3.2.2 to 10.3.2.1 and into the LAN (10.3.1.x), but I cannot ping from 10.3.3.2 to 10.3.3.1 and, obviously, not to the LAN from that second interface either...

Could you let us see your configs and the output from openvpn?

I'm attaching a ZIP with the server OVPNs, the client's OVPNs and the respective logs for each connection at the client computer.

Note that I'm trying both connections to ports 5000 (default) and 5001 from the same client but NOT concurrently (I try one first, then close it and try the other one), but I get the same results when trying both connections concurrently from two different client computers.

I can't see anything wrong with your configs.

Have you checked that there is no firewall in the way blocking port 5001 but allows port 5000?

Check with a packet sniffer, like Windump that the packets really arrive on your server on port 5001.
