How do I setup OpenVPN client on Mac?

Can OpenVPN clients talk to each other?

Can I use the same OpenVPN client in two different locations (ie. At work and at home) and have each of them connect to my OpenVPN server? Will I need to have each client talk to the server using a different subnet for each, or is there some sort of magic that allows them to be on the same subnet without getting confused about which one they're talking to? I just made it work with static routes. Each client was bound to its own static route to the openvpn server. I don't see why this wouldn't work, but I haven't used openvpn in a while.

Edit: I just realized that the openvpn server should behind a firewall. Perhaps an icmp redirect at the firewall is required to tell the openvpn server where the clients are. I can't be sure.

How do I share OpenVPN connection on Mac?
