[Openvpn-users] Can't get IP lease

I am attempting to OpenVPN over a wireless link from WinXP laptops to a
Linux (RedHat 8) server.  Currently using a shared secret.

I created ten TAP interfaces (tap0 - tap9) on the server, and a bridge
(br0) that contains eth0 and tap0 - tap9.  eth0 is on the LAN where the
DHCP server is.

The WinXP laptop initiates the connection, and "tap0" on the laptop
becomes enabled, but it has an invalid IP address and then gets on of
M$'s idiotic "Automatic Private Address".

On the server I have -
port 5001
dev tap1
secret pc01947.key
proto udp
persist-key
persist-tun
ping-timer-rem
ping-restart 60
ping 10
comp-lzo
user nobody
group nobody
verb 4

On the client I have -
remote 192.168.1.35 (the bridged interfaces Ip address)
port 5001
proto udp
dep tap
dep-node tap0
secret pc01947.key
ping 10
comp-lzo
verb 3
mute

Client and server seem to find each other and authenticate just fine.

Client<---wireless(192.168.29.x)--->(29.1)router(1.5)<---LAN(192.168.1.x)<---(1.35)VPNServer

I can ping from the client to the VPN server, I've removed all the
firewall rules.
