For server2 it says what it should - it lists our two DCs and their respective 
IP Addresses. For server3, which is presently in standby, it says:

[nasad...@nas_control dump]$ server_cifs server_3
server_3 :
Cifs NOT started
Security mode = NT
Max protocol = NT1
I18N mode = ASCII
Home Directory Shares DISABLED

Enabled interfaces: (All interfaces are enabled)

Disabled interfaces: (No interface disabled)

[nasad...@nas_control dump]$

What does server_cifs <movername> (or ALL) say? The celerra tends to do WINS 
lookups as well if it can. It'll also cache until a name dies, is stuffed and 
mounted.

Hoping perhaps someone on the list has run into this. At the moment I'm about 
to fall asleep in front of my laptop...

Situation...had a NAS checkup post a warning that it couldn't ping a DC with an 
APIPA address named *SMBSERVER. The APIPA address was 169.254.2.238.

Discovered that one of my DCs had a NIC enabled but not connected, and guess 
what? DHCP was enabled on the NIC and it had the address of 169.254.2.238...

So, disabled the NIC, ran a nas_checkup on my NS-20 Celerra, and still had the 
error. I stopped and restarted the CIFS services (per EMC support) and the 
nas_checkup came back clean. (YAY!) Then tried to connect to CIFS and no 
dice... (BOO!)

I've checked every service I can think of to check, even restarted a few. 
Re-enabled the NIC to no avail... I do know that the APIPA address for the 
disabled NIC is still in the registry, but at this point I don't think that 
matters, because the Celerra theroretically doesn't know about it anymore. The 
Celerra can ping both of my DCs just fine, and I can ping my NetBIOS CIFS share 
server names no problem. However when I try to connect to \\servername or 
\\IP-address, I get:


"No network provider accepted the given network path."

Going on 5 hours with no CIFS shares, and this is from both windows 2003 DCs, 
and two different member servers, one Windows 2003 and one Windows 2000.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks,
