Ok so far I have stumped half of my systems department with these one, so i thought i would pose it to the networking gurus here.
Currently I have a piece of software which is capable of backing up client databases. When I am mapped to either the server name directly or it's ip the software can connect fine but when I am mapped to any of the 3 disaster recovery alias's for the server the backup software comes back "client area inaccessible". Our systems department have been working on this for a month and can't figure it out.
If you have any questions I will answer as much as possible. I was originally thinking a possible permissions issue with the alias but then i found out there is no such thing. Anybody have any suggestions on what to look for.
