HyperV Manager Isse

Good Morning,

I have a HyperV 2008 core install that I am trying to connect to from a windows 7 box.  When I try to connect I get the error "RPC Server unavailable.  Unable to establish communications between x.x.x.x and x.x.x.x"

I also cannot rdp to the core server by its name.  I get the error: "Remote Desktop cannot verify the remote computer because there is a time or date difference between your computer and the remote computer.  Make suer your computer's clock is set to the correct time, and then try connecting again."  However, I can remote desktop into it by using its ip address.

Can anyone help - thanks :)

Could be a DNS issue.  Can you ping the hostname of the core server?  ping -a hostname.  If not, check the DNS settings on your server.

I can ping the server by name.  What else can I look for?
Did it return IPv4 or IPv6 address?
IPV 4
What are you using to connect when you get the RPC error?  Also, have you double checked the time, time zone and am/pm settings to verify they are correct?
I am using the built in remote desktop program built into windows.  Yes, I have tripled checked the date and time.  It all looks good.
What else can I look into?
