So it seems.  LDAP/smb stopped working with lots of spam in my smbd log file.
From the client perspective the VPN was rejecting the username.  In the logs
it was indicating it was trying to send over the public interface a private
ip broadcast, and then it was more seriously erroring out.  Once I added the
interface selection all of this went away.
