MAP Toolkit inventory computers on remote domain through vpn

Question

Evening,
Basically as the title says I need to pull inventory report using MAP toolkit from my remote domains the access of which is achieved through VPN.
When I run the MAP wizard I get to the point were it asks me to specify domain (ex domainname.microsoft) and credentials. Is there any way to make like a domain connection on my computer to another domain or specify vpnip:MAPdomainspecificport instead.
Of course would that subsequently mean I'll then specify domainuser@vpnip:domainservicesport?
Long shot I know, just thought I'd try just in case.
Thanks

Although MAP uses WMI which relies on an RPC/DCOM protocol and PING uses ICMP, which is not the same, they both use DNS to resolve host names to IPs. If you can PING a machine using its host name from the MAP machine, then MAP should also be able
to route to it.
