Adding computer to remote domain

I set up new computers for a remote office and need to be able to add
computers to that remote domain. I can establish a VPN session to the remote
domain controller, but I need to add that computer to the remote domain and
then log in as a user on that remote domain. So I can ship the computer and
all the user has to do is login and I have pre-configured the network and
apps, etc.

Suggestions, please.
