Hi Stefan, thanks for your quick response.

The problem is when I go into Configure security to SET UP the mirror it
fails with "the server network address "TCP://SQL-xxx-01.xxx.xxx.xxxx:5022"
cannot be reached or does not exist. Check the network address and that the
ports for the local and remote endpoints are operational (MS Sql Server,
Error:1418)

Now I know its NOT a connectivity issue as
a. we dont have firewalls between the two trusted VLANs
b. I can telnet to the remote SQL box on 5022.

So if I can't configure security I presume mirroring is NOT set up yet, or
not done correctly.
