Kenneth, I use it either with OpenBSD+IPSec or OpenBSD+OpenVPN with no issues. My experiences are similar to the ones described by others in this thread.
I would just like to add that with OpenVPN you can setup load balancing of connections in order to try to spread those connections through several boxes. The decision about which server to connect to is made on OpenVPN's client side though, from what I recall. With authentication in LDAP works like a charm. The only inconvenience is syncing user certificates and configs (when needed) and defining/maintaining a method to supply configs/installs to users. My 2 cents...
