Thank you for responding you are exactly correct and
I did an update to our firewall and the update gave
Allowed me to specify a domain to the VPN connection
And that worked :)

Thanks again
This is strange.  I did some testing on an iMac connecting to the same VPN I was trying on the iPhone.  The iMac picks up the domain name from DHCP so that I can ping "server" and it appends "domain.com" to it to make a FQDN.  The iPhone does not do that.
