Thanks for your thoughts !

The name resolution of the media server was one thing we were
fighting with before. The real problem was the config file of
the DAS box which lists drives in a range like d1-d8 bought
if you specify another client with drives above that range,
you have to list them seperatly like d9,d10,d11 ...

DAS is a old piece of software and it's behaving like that ...

Cheers and thanks

Axel
