[QUOTE="CieNeSDi, post: 286213, member: 62546"] hi copperwave, [B]The good thing is that if I use the IP address then I get a connection - on both the working and non-working clients. If I use a host name I don't.[/B] for me this sounds like you have a DNS/hostname resolution problem. try the following: open a command prompt and type in: ping "hostname" if you don't get an answer thats your problem. make the following: go to C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc -> open the file hosts -> type in: "IP Adress of the TVServer" (tab) "hostname of the TVServer" example: 192.168.1.1 <there should be a tab here> TVServer this should be the last line in this file. hope this helps a little bit :) [/QUOTE]
