This is likely to be a routing issue. Many VPNs will change the default gateway of the system to be the other end of the VPN tunnel, meaning that all packets that you don't have a specific route for go over the VPN. If there's no route out of that site to the system you're connecting to, or they have an outbound firewall that prevents RDP, or the site you're using RDP with restricts the addresses which can use RDP to access their servers, the packets will never reach their intended target.

You also have to remember that routing decisions are taken entirely on the basis of where the packet's going: while IP does have source routing capabilities (i.e. the creator of the packet dictates the route it takes), this feature is very rarely used and most routers will ignore it due to the risk of spoofing. Therefore it could be that RDP packets from your computer are reaching their server, but there's no way back from the server to your computer.

About all you can do is note what your default gateway is before creating the VPN connection (use route print and record the gateway value against the 0.0.0.0 route), turn on the VPN, then add a new route (with route add) to the target server's IP address, and the previous default gateway. Packets for the target server should then take the same path as they would without the VPN enabled.

This assumes that the VPN is implemented as a separate network adapter. If it's implemented as a filter driver on your real network adapter, it may not be possible to circumvent it.

You could also have problems if the server you're trying to use RDP with is on your local subnet. This technique may still work, depending on your router.
