Would you be willing to give me some details on how you've configured this?
I feel like I've gotten close, but I keep circling around the solution.  I
can open a tunnel between the two machines, and my client can ping the
server through the tunnel (and vice versa), but I can't get my client to
show up on the same subnet as the server.

Here's my setup (in case it matters):

OpenVPN Server: Red Hat 9, Linux 2.4 kernel
Single NIC, Private IP Address: 192.168.230.204
Local Subnet: 192.168.230.0/24

The server has a statically mapped public IP address (call it x.x.38.78).
All requests that come into the DSL router destined for this address get
mapped through to 192.168.230.204.  Unfortunately, this means that I can't
have OpenVPN bind to the public address, because the machine is for all
intents and purposes unaware of that address.

OpenVPN Client: Windows XP

I don't need broadcast, so a routed solution would be perfect. I just can't
manage to fit the last piece into place to join my clients to the server's
subnet.

Thanks loads,
Michael
