Yes that is a problem. You can do what you want, but then you have to
use proxy-arp or bridging. However, you could also give the VPN clients
addresses from another subnet (for example, 192.168.101.0/24). The
latter is much easier to set up, and recommended unless you have a very
compelling reason to let the VPN clients use the same subnet as the
server.
