Can't access DFS via Cisco VPN software

Hello IT pros.

I have the following situation.
We have a Cisco ASA 5515-X in our building, we have two different domains inside as well, 1st domain is called school1.lan and the 2nd is network2.lan, for schoold1.lan we have 10.1.10/23 and for network2.lan we have 172.16.1.0/24, when I connect from home using Cisco VPN software I connect to 172.16.1.0/24 I can access all the shares, except the DFS share.. I get the right IP address, but one thing that has caught my attention is that the primary dns suffix I get is school1.lan

Any ideas.

Did you try to connect to the DFS by using the IP address instead of the name? If this works we can continue to sort out DNS problems, otherwise IP routing or firewall rules might be the focus.

Right, since I cannot connect using \\mydomain\mydfs when connected via vpn I tried the IP address of one of the servers \\w.x.y.z\mydfs I still can't open it.
