I have DFS shares that I can connect to on my local network, but VPN clients can no longer connect to - and they used to be able to connect to them.
There are three servers (all of which are domain controllers):
onsite1 - Windows Server 2003 x64 R2
offsite1 - Windows Server2003 x64 R2
exchange1 - Windows SBS Server 2003
We recently moved all of the file shares off the exchange1 host to the onsite1 host (both of which are physically located in the office); at the same time, we built offsite1 in the office and set up all the migrated shares on onsite1 as DFS shares that replicate to offsite1. The grand scheme, recently completed, was to move offsite1 offsite and connect it via a lan-to-lan VPN tunnel, so we now have a live offsite backup of all the network shares. The offsite1 host is a DC, set up in a separate AD site on a separate subnet (associated with the site) etc.

Again, on the local network in the office, \\domain.com\shared drive works fine. When clients connect from home using Cisco VPN client, to the office, \\domain.com\shared drive gives an error that it is not available, either because it cannot be found or because I don't have permission. If I use \\onsite1\shared drive to connect directly to the shared folder on the server, it works. I'm not interested in setting up the users to use a different share in the office than over the vpn, especially since this USED to work before I moved offsite1 off site.
How do I get this working again over the VPN?
