Are you actually using \\serverIP or the \\servername ?

I had no end of problems because the IP address wasn't listed in my internet
explorer "trusted sites" (but *.ourdomain.com was)

When downloading from a browser to create a smartcard token (for example),
the browser security needs to be in the "trusted sites" zone ... (to allow
download of the required ActiveX files from the server)

Does this help ???
