Ok for some reason 2003 and xp machines that are locked down with policies are not working with an alias that was created within DNS for a server.
To shortin the length of a server name for share purposes we created an alias. IE. Fileserver1 alias FS1. If you go onto the machine and type in \\fs1 you get an access denied message. If you type \\Fileserver1 it takes you right into the server. Anyone have a clue on which policies may be affecting this.
