No plug for the corporate overlords from me, but Astaro uses OpenVPN for a reason- I think that it's a great project. I was an OpenVPN user for years before becoming a vendor weasel, and it always served me well. They now have a commercial branch of the project, which means you can get support, aka "someone to yell at".
