Firewall GPO question

I disable the windows firewall when machines are connected to the domain. I
do this via Computer Config -> Admin Templates -> Network -> Network
Connections -> Windows Firewall -> Domain Profile -> and disable "Windows
Firewall: Protect all network connections".
For laptops I enable the firewall through the Standard Profile so that the
firewall is active on laptops when not connected to the domain.
My question is how to allow administrative access to the remote laptopsl
when they are connected via VPN. The Standard Profile settings apparently are
in effect even after a remote laptop connects via VPN, so the firewall is
blocking the access. I need to be able to access the machines through SMS
remote control, Symantec System Center, Computer Management, etc.
I did try adding the local subnet and my internal IP range to the "Allow
remote administration exception" under the Standard Policy. My thinking was
that when connected via VPN the remote machine is on my local subnet and
adminstrative access would be allowed. That wasn't the case...still no admin
access.
Thanks
