On my intranet, I have the following allocation:

192.168.11.1 N66U
192.168.11.2-31 manual IPs
192.168.11.32-244 DNS

Is there a way I can set up the openVPN server so that:

192.168.11.245-254 openVPN

How would I go about doing this?
 
Looks like the next-best-thing is to use OpenVPN's BRIDGE mode instead of TUNNELING - trying to get that to work now.
 
OK, I think I got it working using the BRIDGED networking option.

Some funkiness in the setup included:

1. adding this on the server-side:
server-bridge 192.168.11.1 255.255.255.0 192.168.11.244 192.168.11.254

2. tweaking DNS settings on the client-side (Tunnelblick), but mostly, remembering to add the DNS server manually into the standard OSX network settings
