Download the openvpn tarball then do a "rpmbuild -ta" on it.
But you need lzo beforehand. freshrpms.net has good lzo packages. Get
and install them, then build and install the openvpn package.

Jim, there are many users like Johan asking for RPMS - would it be
possible, please, to make a more prominent note on the site somewhere
that it's possible to generate the packages straight out of the tarball?
Maybe a note on the download page or something (e.g. "don't look for
RPMs, just do a rpmbuild -ta on the tarball; lzo is a prerequisite for
that").
