 Sh> Ok, looks like it's max source states.  If I set that, I have to pass the
 Sh> rule.  Do I set this for LAN or WAN?  I've tried both, applied the rule
 Sh> and was able to connect from an IP behind a VPN more than once.

Rule needed to be as WAN, with an unassociated rule made from the port
forwarding rule.  It's all working great now!  I think this may have been
easier to do with OPNSense than PFSense.  With the latter, it seemed to
require HAPROXY, which I never got to work right...  Anyway, success!
