Sorry

The second IP was 192.168.168.252

However when I connect using the VPN and then use windows RDC with that IP I get nothing. I am obviously doing something wrong here.

Hi Martin

You must have been given something more. 192.168 is not an address, it should be like 192.168.1.123 or 192.168.1.123:3456 if a non-default port is used. 
However, as you sit at an Active Directory, the server to address will have a hostname which could be like serverxyz.qub.ac.local and would be preferable to use.

Also, access from your workstation must have been granted.
What did your notwork guy tell you?

I have created a VPN connection which I have working.

I have been given an internal IP (192.168) which I was told to use for remote desktop. Of course it dosnt work. How can I remote into another server desktop using the VPN connection?
