You can route a network over each connection, but you would need to renumber all your p.o.s. networks so that the entire inter-network would have unique addresses. (Which might be a good plan in the long term, but I guess it's not something you can do easily, as you pointed out.) If you have a limited number of applications you want to access from your HQ, using a NAT setup should be feasable, administration-wise. You didn't mention which OS your OpenVPN router runs, but if it is some form of UNIX, you can easily forward TCP ports from that box to another one on the local network. You can either add appropriate packet filter rules, or run a local TCP proxy process that accepts a TCP connection on the OpenVPN machine, and forwards it to the machine the application is running on. I'm not familiar enough with Windows, but I'm assuming similar tools are available.
