computer names not resolving via RDC

[Steve Stewart]

Hello,

Quick question for you folks. After creating a VPN connection to my
Small Business Server, I used to be able to access the server via RDC
by using the server name. Now I have to use the IP address. Any ideas?
I'm about to roll out RDC throught a company and want to make sure
that users can access their computers via computer name.

Thanks!

Steve

Can you ping the machine using the computer name after VPN?

PS: May be you have to use the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN).

FQDN works!
