According to:

the openvpn system allows a user/password to be configured.

I did not see any mention of passwords on:
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/guide/bucu-openvpn.html

Is there any LEAF package that allows one to maintain a list of users
and passwords and code that can be used as an authentication module
for openvpn ?


You should consider using X.509 Certificates for Authentification. 
Certificates provide higher security than passwords and allow the users 
to change their passphrase without the need to change any passwords on 
the leaf-box.
