While using VNC manager 3.0 connected on a VPN connection, I am able to connect to Windows 2000 OS server but not to windows 2000\XP OS desktops.  I am able to ping the desktop systems and DNS is resolving the computer name through the VNC Manager, but VNC or RDP will not work.  Any thoughts on troubleshooting?

Try to test the connection with telnet command.

telnet.exe  XP_BOX_IP  5900  for VNC connection or
telnet.exe  XP_BOX_IP 3389 for RDP connection

most probably both commands will fail to establish the connection. 

May be a firewall issue?

In addition to that;

If you can RDP into the server, try to RDP out of the server to a workstation. Make sure the XP workstations are allowing Remote Desktop Connections.
