Hi, I want to install an openvpn server into an existing network without touching it.
Existing network is very basic, Internet router + routed firewall (2 nic) + LAN
I want to put it into the LAN and give access to remote users. Is it possible?
Thanks.

It is possible but only if you add routes to the individual machines that need access.
Normally you would arrange access by setting a static route in the network's default gateway, but you said you do not want to touch the existing network.

By the way. Did you mean you want to give devices on the network access to the remote users, or, that you want remote users to have access to devices on the network?

true, I want to give remote users acces to some computers/servers on the LAN

Then that's easy by using access server with its default settings but with internet redirection and dns redirection turned off. This will work with NAT, which requires no changes in your network.
However, you do need to open ports to the Access Server for incoming VPN connections.
If you can't do that, you have an interesting problem.
