[Openvpn-users] VPN Design Question

I'm adding some VPN's into an office network to permit remote
access to a samba fileserver from 6 home dsl networks. All 7
networks (6 home + 1 office) have OpenBSD firewalls with static
IP's. All workstations are a mix of Win98, Win2K, and WinXP.

My first thoughts were to run OpenVPN on the firewalls themselves.
But is that the best plan? Would it be better to run OpenVPN on
the samba fileserver itself since that is the only resource the
clients would be accesssing?

On the client side... Install on the remote firewalls or on the
windows workstations? Any advice?
