I have an openVPN Server.  I have it configured with both a DHCP address and a Static address.  OpenVPN clients attach to the DHCP address, but not to the Static address.  
I can ssh onto the Server via the Static address just fine.

Here is ifconfig (with IPs xxx'd out):
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:11:11:37:C2:53  
          inet addr:128.138.xxx.xxx  Bcast:128.138.xxx.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::211:11ff:fe37:c253/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
