I wasn't able to ping the brixserver via hostname but I was able to ping the IP after about 1000 attempts. When I pinged, I browsed to the server as \\192.168.2.102\ and it came back without a problem. Weird.

Were you able to ping it through its host name?

Do you also have these computers in a domain?

Maybe that 1000 attempt did it. ;)
