Let me follow up to my own post.

It appears that my changes to the shorewall files worked. I can now ping 
both tunnel ends. Then, using scripts to create routing suggested by 
Robert Apodaca (thank you very much, I guess I should have read further 
into the openvpn docs), I was able to ping a machine on the office 
network from a machine on the home network.

Then I was able to mount an export from the office server onto my home 
workstation, and open and save files using applications on the home 
workstation.

This is just great!

This stuff may be trivial to a lot of you, but I have dreamed for ten or 
fifteen year to be able to do this. I am very happy. Especially happy to 
do it with open source software.

Thanks to all who have helped me along the way, and thanks to all of 
those who volunteer their time and energy to create and support this 
great open source software that we get to use.
