I am having a issue with connecting to samba shares (OSX). I am able to connect to all share however depending on what method that I use to connect to the shares I get very different performance results. For example if I connect to \\server\share it takes 2-3 seconds for each directory to either appear or to viewable. On the other side if I connect using \\x.x.x.x\share directory access is instantaneous. After doing some research I have discovered that I am getting a "NT Status : Status_Logon_Failure" message. I do not get this message using the IP address to connect to the share. Does any one have an Idea what might be causing this? Thanks Brian
