iTunes sharing over Mac OS X Server VPN

I've configured my Mac OS X Server on my local network as a VPN server.  I've tested the configuration from another MacBook Pro that I have on my network as well.  I've connected to another wireless network in range, connected via Internet Connect to my VPN server, and verified that I can connect with Remote Desktop to my Mac OS X Server (192.168.9.100) I've been granted an IP address by the router on teh wireless network of 192.168.1.x.  

My question is, if I can ping my server which also acts as an iTunes jukebox sharing my iTunes library, and I can remote desktop to it using the LAN IP (192.168.9.100) then why can't I see the iTunes library when opening iTunes from the machine I am VPNed in with?  I've also installed Network Beacon and installed an ITunes listener, however it doesn't seem to work.  Am I missing something?

Here are the instructions I'm using for the Network Beacon:

Yes my server is actually in the DMZ.  All ports are opened, if I open iTunes on the server, I can see the iTunes share actually pop up on itself meaning that the network beacon is functioning correctly.

Thanks - I'll try to have my VPN server assign a different IP.  I appreciate your help.
