Here's a first draft at a patch for OpenVPN. With this, the tun interface gets set to IFF_BROADCAST mode. One small piece is still missing: OpenVPN tries to install a route for the subnet, but that fails because now ifconfig has already inserted that route. I'll try to look into that a bit later on. I also haven't tested the server side yet, or any other mode.

The route for the subnet is pushed by the server (expanded from the --server config option). Although adding the route fails, the connection process continues and the connection is working fine. Making either the client ignore the pushed route or the server not push the route would be rather intrusive, so I think leaving it at this should be acceptable.

Will continue testing...

I've tested the patch on -stable and -current, with --topology subnet and --topology net30, in client and server modes, and everything seems to be working fine. From my point of view, this can be committed.

I will submit the patch to James Yonan and the openvpn-developers list for inclusion.
