You can do two things - cross-build with mingw under linux (producing
openvpn.exe binaries for windows), or build with mingw+msys under
windows.

If you want to do the latter, read the file "domake-win" in the OpenVPN
source tree - it's the script that does the windows building, and it
contains the instructions as well.

If you use the pre-compiled tun/tap driver from the 2.1.3 windows
bundle, you don't need the MS DDK/WDK, just msys+mingw and the NSIS
installer-builder.
