Thanks guys!

I may have been a little unclear, but I think Kevin understood the question.
The VPN network is secure, we use a Cisco concentrator and the clients use Cisco VPN client.

We only allow hosts that authenticate in. We only allow certain hosts to be seen by the VPN clients. All the mapping is accomplished with a Cisco PIX firewall.

Kevin has me on the correct track, and I think this will be the easiest and the optimal to do.

Thank you for all of your input.

If I have drastic changes, which is unlikely it can be redone (new dcs, etc) it is ok.
I also do not mind manually putiing in some host records.
This looks like it will be much easier than I thought.
Somethings are so automated today, it seems to make things more difficult.
