With the client config generator package, "openvpn-client-export",
installed, this is imho the best option for an end-user VPN. pfSense has a
much nicer UI than OpenVPN AS, and that UI also supports other things you
might need (like routing protocols via bird or quagga, managing the
firewall, etc) as well. I can't see any reason to pay money for OpenVPN AS
when you compare it to what you get for free with pfSense.  The NetGate
pfSense appliances are quite nicely spec'd, too, if you just have cash
burning a hole in your pocket.  It also easily ties in OpenVPN
authentication to RADIUS or LDAP, and getting it working with Active
Directory on the backend is trivially simple.
