Two last comments from me:

(1) I assume you already have a plan on how to keep your users data
synchronized between the servers?
There are many ways to do this, like db replication, LDAP multi-master
replication, or even plain-old rsync of users file.
Accounting is somewhat similar, but since (depending on your setup)
it's probably easier since you don't have to keep them synchronized.
It might be enough to just pull accounting data from all servers
regularly to do centralized processing.

(2) openvpn is good, but in my experience I had trouble reconnecting
after network failure if openvpn is run on udp (the default). Using
tcp doesn't have this problem (although it introduce other problems,
like longer retries, which in my case was acceptable).
