DNS not working on VPN Connections

Recently it appears like DNS has stopped working when I connect to our network using a Cisco VPN Client.  In the past I would connect using our software client and once connected, I could use remote desktop to connect to a workstation or server by the workstation or server name.  

There have not been any changes to our DC's or DNS servers.  I have rebooted the servers and that hasn't resolved the issue.

I remotely connect if I use the IP address, but a server name returns a error that indicates that remote connections are not enabled or the server is offline, which can't be the case because I can connect using IP.

When connected to the VPN, run an "ipconfig /all" and double check that the VPN connection has the right dns servers listed.
