The telnet still does the same, but I figured out I had a combination of
problems, like wrong security settings on both sides.
For now the system works for the "real" name of the server. However, to be
flexible, I need it to work with the alias. I remember some registry setting
for that.
I also don't know if I have to set up an extra domain in the virtual server
for that. No errors in the logs, at least not the log I was looking at.
Please advise.
