I am about to setup a VPN at a main office that has an existing Win NT4 server domain using a DSL connection. At my home office I have a Win NT4 domain and a dial-up connection to the internet (no DSL available yet). What steps do I need to look at to setup a trust relationship between the two domains when I setup the VPN?

Just a piece of advice from my experience, you don't want to setup a trust between domains that will not constantly be able to talk to each other. There's a good chance that you'll spend more time breaking and re-establishing the trust then you will doing anything else.
If you are dead-set on doing this and you aren't using WINS at your home, you'll need to create an LMHOST file for each machine that will be contacting your domain at work. In it you will need to make entries for each machine on the distant end that you'll need to talk with.
Are you ever on ICQ, Yahoo! Messenger, AIM, or MSN Messenger? There's a lot to this whole subject and real-time chat would make this a lot easier to talk about.
