Hi Dónal and Jonathan,

Isn't the built-in VPN software for the Mac under Snow Leopard using  
CISCO VPN? I don't know how that meets the Open VPN requirements.   
Most VoiceOver users appear to be using Vineserver and Chicken of the  
VNC.  I also came across this Mac OS X Hints article with links to a  
blog for doing a set up using Open VNC and a GUI interface called  
Tunnelblick. Don't know whether it's accessible, but you can try it out:

Cheers,

Esther
