Vista - \\servername\sharename is unavailable

03-11-2008

Lately we get the problem on our server that it cannot reach the backupserver
by \\servename\sharename, but when we use \\IP-adress\sharename it is no
prblem.
When we ping the backupserver we get the right IP-adres back.
After reboot of the server the problem is gone for a while, but returns
everytime.
We use Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2
