How to VPN FROM a Remote Desktop machine?

My scenario is that I have a home test machine, which has Remote Desktop
enabled. I also have "dev" machines out on the internet which I can VPN to
from my test machine.

So, I am at work, and I have setup my Firewall to allow me to Remote Desktop
to my Home test machine...this works no problem.

I then want to establish a VPN connection from that machine to my "DEV"
servers on the internet. When I connect the VPN, it drops my RD session
immediately. I can RD to my DEV machines on the internet, and see, in fact
that the Test machine correclty created the VPN session....but it appears
that it won'd allow this connection while I have a RD session???

There must be a way to enable this.
Any ideas?
 
Addition to Sooner's suggestion, you may try IPSec VPN.
