I could find nothing in the archives on this, and the FAQ doesn't cover it 
either.

Is there a way to streamline the day to day administration of the vpn 
services in OpenBSD for a multiuser configuration by:

1. using dynamic IP address assignment (preferably via a DHCP server on the 
LAN).  I know this is possible with other gateways like Cisco 3000.
2. Using external authentication.  Native Novell eDirectory would be best but 
LDAP would be just dandy.

The idea is that the VPN box should run like an appliance once it is 
configured & running, and should not be one of 18-20 places a sysadmin needs 
to change whenever someone joins or leaves the company.  I'd like to change 
things just once in the directory to streamline the administrative overhead.

Thanks
Chris
