Static IP for OpenVPN Clients

To set your vpn clients to have a static IP uncomment the line from the server config
client-config-dir /etc/openvpn/ccd
then create a directory...
# mkdir /etc/openvpn/ccd
then create a file in the /etc/openvpn/ccd directory with the same name as the created client certificate (ex Juan)
# vim /etc/openvpn/ccd/Juan
Below is a sample content:
ifconfig-push 192.168.1.20 255.255.255.0
Save it and restart your OpenVPN server...
# /etc/init.d/openvpn restart
You can create as many as you like as long the certificate is the same as the config file in ccd directory
