There shouldn't be any firewall associated oddness, as there is none.
However, the IDS/IPS may be to blame. I see that the backup machine
can't have a static IP address. I can potentially have the security
office white-list all connections to papio on certain ports. What
ports would be relevant for your issues? Just 22 and 1194? UDP/TCP,
or just TCP?
Is the backup system actually having any issues, or is it just your
client? You'd get a pretty clear message if you were getting banned
(if you tried to go to something via HTTP).
