Well, I can RDP from my wifes computer back to the servers or my work desktop, so yes, they know how to get back through the VPN. Not sure about the last question, but either way, as long as it works on my wifes desktop, but not on my laptop (when Im at home OR out on the road) it shouldnt matter, should it? I think everyone keeps overlooking the fact that it works at home ON MY WIFES DESKTOP, but NOT on my company laptop, when at home OR on the road. I tried it plugged up to an Ethernet jack at a seminar Tuesday and it did not work. I tried it wirelessly at McDonald's and while I was able to get around, surfing the web and even SSH into my linux box at home, I was not able to RDP while connected to the VPN. I also plugged up to the Ethernet at home and tried to VPN and RDP from the same physical network as my wife's PC, and was unable to connect via RDP. Cisco client *said* I was connected, but I was unable to get past the firewall at the office.

The VPN client has to decide whether to send traffic through the VPN tunnel or over the local network. This decision is based on the split tunneling settings (as indicated below) and the available/advertised routes on both networks. Generally speaking, if the VPN client has an IP address that is also in the range of a network on the other side (think private addresses), you can have issues--some of which can be mitigated with the split tunneling settings.
