Alias Error

[FXRS]

I have a NAS backup hdd. When I try to connect to it I get this error message...

"The alias "SERVER" could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found."

When I try to "fix" it I cannot choose the file or my server to choose it. So how do I get around to fixing this?

Thanks ahead of time.

What method are you using to connect to it? If you know its current IP address, I find I have the most luck connecting to it via the Connect To Server item in the Finder's Go menu.

Can any other machine son the network access it? Have you tried resetting the network by unplugging the disk and the router/switch from the power and plugging in again after about a minute?
