Is your VPN using the same address space as the site 1 LAN? And does the
site 2 firewall allow access from that address space? That'd be the first
place to look. Also you need to check if the VPN server allows access to
other VPNs.
My Vpn is on teh same subnet as site 1 but with a 50 ip reservation.
So that should not be the problem, look if your VPN server allows
communication with connected LANs and other VPNs, at least OpenVPN has
configuration to forbid such communication.

Look out for "DNS" in Start->Programs->Management (make that available in
your Startmenu's properties).
:-) ... ok i should explain, I am not that much of a Noob. I have done
a lot of work with the windows servers,no expert for sure, but on a
hunt and search basis. ie. something doesn't work... figure out how to
fix that problem, not the whole root problem, just that issue.. That's
the main issue. I have several job titles at my company (non-profit)
if that tells you anything. I just honestly have not have the time to
set down and fully understand how the entire DNS system should work. I
want to, just don't have the resources. For example, I am at home
right now replying to your response, since this is when I can stop,
SSH into my machines, and check out how the system ran today. or just
to play with stuff.
Sorry, I did not mean any offence ;-)

Question:
So the linux box cannot update it's DNS entries from the master DNS
server, or is there a way to do so? and if not then should I just
manually add them to the hosts file and call it good? i am only
dealing with one linux machine right now, aside from the firewalls,
and there there is only one linux workstation, and it's mine so that
one is not a real problem right now. I would like to get everything
setup the correct way though.
At least I've not yet found out, how. But then for servers it is usually not
necessary, they should have fixed IPs anyway, if for no else reason then
because of port forwarding at the router(s)...
So adding them manually to the Windows DNS server(s) should be good enough.
As long as every host is in the DNS, it's a correct setup. It just gets a
PITA if you have a large number of hosts not using automatic DNS
registration and they're changing their IP a lot ;-)
