It sounds like it is not resolving the short name then.  I know on my unix 
servers (sorry I am not a Windows server person) I had to add to my hosts file 
the short name.  You might check your \windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file. 
 On mine I use the format of: IP ShortName FQDN

192.168.0.1 server server.xyz.com


I also add into the ar.conf (ar.cfg on Windows) I have the following (This is 
so the Remedy server knows itself by both names)

Server-Name: server   
IP-Name: server.xyz.com

In the server config and ar.cfg it is server.  It's pulling from somewhere or 
building server.xyz.com

In Mid-Tier configuration there are 2 entries (server and server.xyz.com).  
This is because having just one (either) causes similar errors.  We've tried 
every combination, no luck.  Something is askew somewhere, and I don't know 
where else to look.

Thanks,
Mark

What is the name of your server (is it server or server.xyz.com)?

We cannot seem to locate where Remedy stores the AR server name that it inserts 
into the URL on a notification.

ARS 7.5
SQL Server
Windows OS

For example:

The URL in the email is something like this:

http://<webserve>...<ARServer>...12345

The ARServer is wrong, and doesn't work.  We've tried the configuration form, 
server configuration tab, etc, but no luck.

Anyone know where this is stored so we can correct it?

It is putting the full path server.xyz.com instead of just server.

Thanks,
Mark
