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
RR:     10.1.1.200
         10.1.1.200
         10.1.1.201
64 bytes from 10.1.1.200: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=36.651 ms      (same  
route)
64 bytes from 10.1.1.200: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=47.752 ms      (same  
route)
64 bytes from 10.1.1.200: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=42.821 ms      (same  
route)

--- 10.1.1.200 ping statistics ---
4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 36.651/45.421/54.460/6.535 ms
