Do I rightly understand that you want the VPN client to be given an address on the remote LAN? But it can only access the VPN server, not the LAN behind it?

If so, you may need to need to change from routed to bridged mode, http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-so...o.html#vpntype

What IP address class did you assign for the VPN connections? Check if your client does not have an IP conflict because of other network interfaces in his pc
