We would need to know a little more about this user's home network,
the VPN configuration he's using, and the site he cannot reach.
Common connectivity issues include:
1. IP address overlap: if the remote user's local IP subnet is also used
on your network, he won't be able to reach computers in the subnet on
your network that his subnet matches.
2. His DNS servers don't know some of the DNS information published by
your network's DNS servers.
3. Your VPN may not be correctly configured to route/forward network
traffic between his end of the VPN and all of your computers.
4. ACLs (access control lists) may prevent the traffic he wants.
