Just to add, I've tried mapping to the shares via Sharename (CHDNAS001) and IP. The latter just times out. Using IP prompts for a username/password which never works (NAS Admin nor their Windows account (User/admin/network admin all get the same result), as it just says "The specified network password is not correct".
Mapping via IP works when connected to the network
I suspect it's an SMBv1 issue, as that's all OS4.2.x supports. Your configuration sounds more complex than the usual solution of enabling SMBv1 in Windows10.
We do have SMBv1 enabled on every machine as our other file server is Windows 2003. And it does work when on the network but not over VPN.
Does https://nas-ip-address/admin work correctly on these systems? If it does, you could enable http sharing for a test share, and see if that works over the VPN.
Have you tried disconnecting one of the ethernet ports? When you use both ports w/o bonding, the return traffic from the NAS could be sent from either NIC, and that might be messing up the VPN routing.
