Make sure the workstations actually have the right DNS and WINS in their
network settings (ipconfig /all). WinNT & Win98 needs properly functioning
WINS to do this, and Win2k (and newer) require properly functioning DNS.
You would be better off joining the workstations by physically having them
at the main site and then transporting them back to the remote site,
depending on how far away that is. Except for the Win98 machines which
never actually "join" a domain.
VPN is a slow, *low* performance link and always will be and this must be
kept in mind when you expect certain things to be done using it.
