Public bug reported:
SRU Justification
[Impact]
We recently fixed DNS resolution of the server hostname during reconnect.
However, server IP address may change, even when the old one continues to
server (although sub-optimally).
We should schedule the next DNS resolution based on the TTL of the DNS record
used for the last resolution. This way, we resolve the server hostname again
when a DNS record expires.
[Fix]

[Test Case]
Microsoft tested
[Regression potential]
Samba Reconnects may fail.
