With older versions of Samba, from a Windows server I could open a share on a
Linux server using any of the following forms...
Host name: \\hostname\share<file://hostname/share>
IP address:
\\10.10.10.10\share<file://10.10.10.10/share>
Alias Name: \\alias\share<file://alias/share> (as
long as 'alias' resolves in DNS)
With Samba 4.7.1, I can now only use one of the forms.
Host name: \\hostname\share<file://hostname/share>
- Works
IP address:
\\10.10.10.10\share<file://10.10.10.10/share> - I get a logon failure, no
permissions, no logon server available
Alias Name: \\alias\share<file://alias/share> - I
get a logon failure, no permissions, no logon server available
This means I can no longer open shares on clustered Linux servers by their
cluster names.
Any ideas?
