I was thinking along these lines too. In the IPSEC VPN section of the Server-Manager is offers a section where you can make the remote server the WINS server for the network. On the "client" server I set the WINS server to the internal IP of the "server" server. Would this be a good solution or do I need to go to each client on the "client" network and set the "server" server the WINS server?

You can only have one WINS server on the entire VPN if you want everything to appear as one large network.
