samba - Apr 2015 - smbclient 4.0.7 resolves host name to IP address for SMB2 but not NT1

The problem is that I don't want it to use the IP address, but to use the
hostname.

Regards,

Have you tried smbclient -I <ip-address of dev3k1.my.domain.com> service

See 'smbclient --help' for more info

file or as a command line option to smbclient using SMB2/3 ?

Using '-I' is a command line option that turns off using the hostname.

If this is not what you require, then please be a bit more specific!

This is still a lingering problem  with SMB2. It uses 2 different functions to
send the Tree Connect Andx Request for NT1 and Tree Connect Request for SMB2.
The both call internal_resolve_name to resolve the hostname, but for NT1 is
passes the hostname through and for SMB2 it uses the IP address. This is the
issue we're trying to address:

http://blogs.technet.com/b/askcore/archive/2009/01/09/file-share-scoping-in-windows-server-2008-failover-clusters.aspx

I'm sure other people had this issue and resolved it. Either the client has
to be told to send the hostname for SMB2, or something on the server has to be
configured differently so it can accept IP addresses for these configurations.
