You are tight, I had to add to hosts file on my client machine IP address of my 
server, and thats what I did so I did pass that error but I am getting now 
different type of an error:

INF - Server status = 236

and it does point me to:
Status Code: 236

Message: the specified client does not exist in an active class within the 
configuration database

Explanation: A client name was not specified or the specified client does not 
exist.

Recommended Action: Activate the required class, correct the client name, or 
add 
the client to a class that meets your needs. After making the correction, retry 
the operation.


So anyway I did some more investigating and on my mediaserver I did not have 
entry in hosts file and that is why it was failing.... Thank you so much for 
your help... I finally got it working :))))
