the IP address of my server has been blocked *not* by the china government but by the cisco equipment where i'm currently located...
Hmm... I must say that I haven't spent much time fiddling with it, but when I was in Beijing last summer access to my OpenVPN server (sharing port with an https server) worked just fine. The only tricky part was that I needed to tunnel the DNS requests through the VPN as well (because apparently the local DNS would give bogus IP addresses for some services such as duckduckgo.com, IIRC).
