Frank,
ok, so it is a TAPI aaplication.
What TAPI Service Provider (TSP) is it using? Any? Only the one from your PBX?
Is it for call controll only? Or does it provide media access too?

It is still not clear to me what exactly you are trying to do.
What is the actual issue ?
As Matthias already pointed out: if you want to access a TSP running on a
Telephony Server from a Telephony Client with a TAPI app, then both need to be
belong to the same Windows domain.
Is this your scenario?

I am using the TSP that came with the PBX box. It does support media
access, but I only need it for call control.

No, they are not natively on the windows domain, but couldn't I VPN the
users into the domain?

Frank,
ok, that's good to know because MS TAPI client / server architecture (i.e.
using RemoteSP.TSP, TCMsetup.exe) only supports remoting of call control but
no remote media access.
See my TAPI and TSPI FAQ:
Q: What is the Microsoft® TAPI client / server architecture ?

Sorry, I'm not a VPN expert, but Matthias' reply in this thread suggests that
this is possible.
Another option may be the usage of TerminalServer:
a TerminalServer can be a TelephonyServer and you are able to assign
(tapimgmt.msc) its TAPI line devices to the domain users that connect via RDP
the same way as for local domain users.
But anymay you need a Windows domain that the TerminalServer / TelephonyServer
is a member of.
Anyway, for MS TAPI client / server architecture there are some TCP / UDP
ports that must be open between Telephony Server and client:
