I just started up one of my older snv_134 test boxes, and the problem doesn't seem to exist there, only snv_151a

I have a DNS alias for the users’ home directories, like “homes” and the same machine has another alias like “fileserver1” The user’s home drive will be mapped to something like \\homes\john$ and the group share will be mapped to something like \\fileserver1\ourgroup Now, if I open 2 “Windows explorer” windows (Windows 7), whenever I access \\fileserver1\ourgroup the explorer window that has \\homes\john$ open goes blank, and sometimes I’d get an error “Windows cannot access \\homes … Error code 0x80070035 – The network path was not found”. Also happens in the other direction, if I open \\homes\john$ , \\fileserver1\ourgroup becomes unavailable. I’m running snv_151a. This behavior doesn’t happen with a native Windows file server or Samba shares, only on Solaris CIFS Anyone got any ideas?
