I problems with this before.
My solution at the time was to the server name only to the local hosts file
with its ip address.
It is not the neatest of solutions and there are probably better ways of
achieving the same thing (making sure that client has the fqdn name
configuration and/or is look at your SBS dns server) but it worked.
