      Is it feasibly possible to route all network traffic on a pfsense box through a site-to-site tunnel and out the gateway at the other end? Obviously the outgoing traffic creating the tunnel itself could never be routed through the tunnel in the first place, so I'm not sure where I should start in trying to figure out a solution to this idea.

      The purpose of this experiment is to securely route all NAT'ed traffic across an unsecured link, through the openvpn tunnel, to a known secure gateway.

      Has this been covered anywhere? Any ideas?

            I never really run into this problem, but as far as i see it, you cannot use the redirect-command in a shared key setup.

            You would have to add routes for the remote gateway and 0.0.0.0/1 and 128.0.0.0/1 manually.
            But from that thread: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,6056.0.html
            It doesnt seem to be a problem :)

            Let us know if it worked for you.
