Question OpenVPN (personal computer - domain network)

My colleague installed Linux (Ubuntu) OpenVPN server for remote work from home and remote devices from the domain network. In the domain we have such subnets as 192.168.(0/1/3/4/6/11/24).0 . The connection between the networks is via CiscoVPN (each network is a different work office). I would like to note: subnet 6 has a mask of 23, and all the others 24.
When connecting to OpenVPN from a home computer, it is possible to ping all subnets and devices, with the exception of 6. In turn, from the OpenVPN server itself, ping to absolutely all subnets is available. What could be the problem? I don’t know how the routes (if there is a ping from the server) can affect and how to configure them differently.
 
Way to complex a installation to easily troubleshoot on a forum.

It all depends where the actual router function is that routes between those subnets. Also it depends on how the vpn is assigning IP addresses to the remote clients. Does that also have its own dedicated subnet or is it assigning them IP out of one of the other subnets.

The most common cause would be you either have some device configured with the wrong subnet mask for the "6" network or you have the gateway IP for one or more of the subnets set incorrectly. Could be the DHCP function where ever that is being done.

Again way to many ways you can implement stuff like this to say for sure. If all the router and vpn are all done on the same server it is likely something wrong on that.
