Shared folder don't mount automatically

Question

I have Mac mini server and i set FileSharing via AFP, SMB and WebDAV.I connect to the server via VPN client which take an IP from the VLAN pool.
In my case 10.0.0.100-150
I expect when i connect in the VPN the shared folders ( the permissions are set corectly) to mount in the sidebar automaticaly.Unfortunately they don't.Even manualy with CMD+K using afp://10.0.0.1
In same time from my iPhone i do conect via WebDAV via VPN channel.

Sure.  Anything is possible in technology. The trick is using the right solution and that often means picking the right devices to support that solution.
So if you are trying to support devices in two locations, than a software VPN is not your solution.  You need to move the VPN to your Firewall and establish a persistent tunnel between the environments.  This is known as site to site VPN.  This allows location A to always see location B and the inverse.  Once you have the network layer complete, then you can start managing the directory integration.
For systems to participate in single sign on, all devices must be trusted by each other.  The process is called binding or joining to the domain.  The Apple side is very similar to the windows side.  You set up a server that has a shared directory (Open Directory, Active Directory), and then you join workstations to these directory server.  Once the workstations are associated, then you can permit user login. 
The basis of an integrated domains is formed a device trust.  Once you have that, then the rest usually comes easy.
Now, if you are just trying to do one off file services, then using the Server based VPN, configuring your clients, and then authenticating to the file services protocol when needed is more that acceptable.
