Newbie Question

Hi, my situation is quite similar to the picture below
Image

where the headoffice in the picture runs on redhat linux with Local IP of 10.2.3.43 (for example ip) and WAN IP if 54.12.43.12 (example obtained from ipchicken.com)
So far, each of the client (running on windows XP and 7) connects to the server through LAN 10.2.3.43:3217

I want to set up the redhat as a server so that each of the client can connect to the server @ 10.2.3.43:3217

Do i start by setting the openvpn-as-1.8.3-RHEL5.i386.rpm downloaded from the website on the redhat computer and then install the OpenVPN Connect Client Download for Windows or OpenVPN Desktop Client Download for Windows or the openvpn-2.2.2-install.exe located on the community downloads?
What is the difference between the 3?

anything i have to take note of? or what other ip i would need?
how many clients can it connect to with the free account?
The free account states that there can be only 2 clients at once, does it mean for a server that i will setup as above, only 2 clients can connect at once unless i purchase extra license?

Thank you
