DFS Replication fails after IP address change

$

I have an issue with DFS replication after we had an IP address change on the remote site it replicates too.

The source server server A (SRV2012) replicates over VPN to server B (SRV2008).

This was working until an IP address change was done on the site (server B).

I can ping and nslookup both ways so DNS seems to be ok.

If I run the replication from server A to server B, I get the error:

The member "Server B" could not be contacted to get current schedule status. The error returned was "The DFS replication WMI connection or synchronization object was not found"

If I do replicate now from DFS management from server B to server A it does comes up with the schedule and you can click ok and it reports as successful.

Checking the DFS folder on server A to see if it did actually replicate does not bring through a little test.txt file

So there is obviously a communication issue but I'm at a loss as to where it may be?

Remember this did work until the IP change on server B site 

Thanks in advance for any information.

Regards,

Glenn
