As Phillip said, the first thing to check is whether the Watchguard is
blocking any traffic across the link.
Whether you put a DC in the site or not is a different question. There
are advantages in having a DC in a site with AD. But if it worked OK on a
leased line, it should work OK with a VPN link. Has anything else changed?
Have you moved from a bridged connection to a routed one?
