I was able to connect using this sequence on the Mac:
$ public_server=cwelug.org
$ open_vpn_server=10.1.1.200
$ open_vpn_client=10.1.1.201
$ sudo echo ;sudo openvpn --dev tun --ifconfig ${open_vpn_client} $
{open_vpn_server} \
--remote ${public_server} \
--secret openvpn.key --verb 9 >&vpn.log &
Here's the test that shows that I can connect:
$ ping -R -c 4 10.1.1.200
PING 10.1.1.200 (10.1.1.200): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 10.1.1.200: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=54.460 ms
