This will depend on the style of VPN, more than the technology behind it. By this I mean that it depends on whether the SSL VPN uses something like SonicWall's NetXtender client (I'm sure other SSL VPN solution providers use something similar), which is roughly equivalent to an IPSec client, and provides a network connection in addition to, rather than instead of, a web interface.
When outside the firewall and trying to connect back in, can you have the user open a command prompt and do an 'ipconfig /all', and see a virtual interface for the SSL VPN? If you do, and if it has an IP address, then the client is working, but you have some troubleshooting to do. If the user can't find one, then you likely either 1) don't have the client installed or 2) some other issue that's fubar'ing things.
