Yesterday I posted about problems with accessing remotely the Virtual PCs from the Virtual Server console. It turns out the problem was domain name related. We had a different name on the internal DNS to that on the external side.

In effect the server was trying to call:

vmrc://virtualserver.mydomain.co.uk:5900/my pc

when we should have been calling

vmrc://virtualserver-external.mydomain.co.uk:5900/my pc

even though we had actually accessed the system via

http://virtualserver-external.mydomain.co.uk

This has been fixed by getting all our DNS entries in line.
