    No matter what I try, I constantly run into a 1418 error, I've check all my tcp/ip configs both in sql, and the server 2003 os, on both vms.  I’ve enabled tcp/ip filtering and allowed all connections, I’ve used telnet to connect up.  Nothing seems to work.  Each server can ping the other, they can telnet into 5022, I don’t know where to proceed from here.  Is there some config somewhere or issues with vms that I am not seeing?  All the machines in the mirroring array are server 2003, I have the physical machine as the witness, vm1 as the Principal, and vm2 as the Mirror.

    Turn off tcp/ip filtering, turn off firewall and then try to mirror your database again. Check network connectivity between all three servers first. If it works without tcp/ip filtering and firewall you'll need to edit your rulesets.

    I've tried it before without tcp/ip filtering, the fact it was not working is why I turned it on.   Also our domain policies do not allow the firewall to be turned on, and all ports are open, you can scan and detect the ports with a port scanner.

    Additionally, as this issue mainly relates to SQL Server, I would like to suggest that you post this issue in our SQL Server forum if the problem remains. People there have better knowledge on this.
