Ok, a lot simpler and more flexible than I imagined. I have some reading to
do ;)
thanks,

I was wondering if it were possible for a VPN
server package to
consistently assign a specific, reserved IP address to a VPN client based
on the authenticating certificate.
Yes, that's possible in most VPN systems. A little quote from OpenVPN's
man page:
OpenVPN's internal client IP address selection algorithm
works
as follows:
1 -- Use --client-connect script generated file for static
IP
(first choice).
2 -- Use --client-config-dir file for static IP (next
choice).
3 -- Use --ifconfig-pool allocation for dynamic IP
(last
choice).
So you can even run a script to select the IP for the client.
