Running Active Directory Users and Computers remotely?

Via a VPN connection from home.  I'm using a work laptop configured for our domain but of course I'm not actually logging INTO the domain from home.  Its cached.  ADUandC (and other MMCs) cannot find the domain.  Is there any way to "trick" it?  I can remote into a computer at work to run it but performance is crap.  Thanks.

Sorry for the late reply, wanted to do some testing.  Thought you had it there since I was only using the my ISP's DNS servers so I added my work DNS servers manually.  Then I realized I also did not have our WINS servers configured either, so I added those.  No dice.  Using Check Point VPN-1 Secure Client.  Any other idea?

Ok, this is odd, but after a COUPLE reboots, its working now.  Must be some replication time at work here.  Thanks for your help.
