I've finally managed to VPN together two offices, but Rendezvous/Bonjour instant messaging isn't possible between the two offices across the VPN. I assume this is because one office is 192.168.0.* and the other is 192.168.1.*, is that right? Can Rendezvous/Bonjour be made to look at both IP ranges?
I would also like to be able to print across the VPN as well, for example print on the other office's laser printer that is shared by the iMac it is connected to.

Probably the best bet all around would be to get your VPN to act as an Ethernet bridge instead of just routing IP packets. Do that and everything else should magically fall into place.
If you can't do that...come back and say why not....

Good idea. How do I do that? :-)
Both offices use Linksys WRV54G routers, and getting them to talk to each other to create the VPN was pretty easy.
I am hopeful for more info. Thanks.
