I have since resolved this by setting up LAN domain via router's Dnsmasq. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1634369
Title: no longer able to resolve .local names in Yakkety Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This maybe a configuration mismatch between gvfs and dnsmasq. I am running Xubuntu on Yakkety I have a Synology DiskStation (a NAS), which provides a Samba share. I have a DD-WRT router (has dnsmasq be default). Both are on near default setting. In Xenial, I was able to navigate to the DiskStation via Thunar -> Browse Network -> DiskStation. In Yakkety, I am able to see the DiskStation, however I got the following error when trying to access it: Failed to open "DISKSTATION" Failed to retrieve share list from server: Connection Refused. After some digging, I found that `gvfs-tree network:///` showed the following ``` network:/// |-- dnssd-domain-DISKSTATION._smb._tcp -> smb://DiskStation.local:445/ `-- smb-root -> smb:/// ``` In Xenial, I am able to ping DiskStation.local, but in Yakkety, it does not resolve to anything. There is no problem with `gvfs-mount smb://DiskStation/` or typing `smb://DiskStation/` into Thunar's address bar. From what I gathered Yakkety desktop comes with dnsmasq installed. This may be a bug with dnsmasq configuration, or gvfs's interaction with it.
