I am able to connect to my office's VPN from home. After establishing that connection, I'm supposed to be able to use Terminal Services to connect to my office computer. I was informed that just typing in my computer name wasn't enough, I had to use the full URL or IP address. Well I tried both and my Terminal just can't find anything.

The odd thing is that I was able to connect ONCE. It was some random evening I decided to try it. I was so thrilled! But then the next evening I tried the exact same thing, exact same address, and it wouldn't connect. The VPN connects but not the Terminal. I feel like it's some stupid setting that I'm missing... or SOMETHING! It's pretty frustrating. Anyone have any hints to give me?
