I looked back on the messages in the thread.  I don't think I missed anything....but
this is the first time I can find anything being mentioned about a VPN.

First it sounded as if there was a simple problem with making a Remote Desktop
connection.  Then it sounded like either a misunderstanding between how hostnames are
resolved. 

I, for one, am confused.  I don't know the network topology.  I don't know what
"boxes" are involved or IP addresses or anything that would "really" define the
problem. 

I'll tell you what I *think* may be the layout.

You have a Cisco VPN Gateway with 2 interfaces.  Let's call them "inside" and
"outside". 
For argument sake I'll assign the IP addresses for the Cisco as
inside=192.168.0.1
outside=192.168.1.1

You have 2 Linux boxes.  One on the outside and one on the inside.  The one on the
inside is running the xrdp server....and the client is on the outside.

For argument sake I'll call them IN and OUT with the following IP addresses.
IN=192.168.0.20
OUT=192.168.1.20

First you establish a VPN connection from OUT to the Cisco.  Then, you want to use
the Gnome-rdp client or Remmina client to obtain a remote desktop connection.

Is that correct so far?  If it is, could you fill in the correct names/IP addresses
involved?
If not, could you correct my understanding of the topology?

Now, assuming the topology is correct......

Without making a RDP attempt....  Can you ping IN from OUT using the hostname?  IP
address?  Can you ssh to IN from OUT using the hostname?  IP address?
