Hi all:

I just started using openvpn a few weeks ago, and am still learning.  
But I think I know how to answer this one:

Nauleau / Fred:

You don't have to bridge openvpn to your network. You can continue to  
use the more efficient tun device. To let the clients see each other,  
use the "client-to-client" option in the server config. Man openvpn  
for details.

Hope this helps,
Christian.
