I have seen issues with Microsoft Office for the Mac trying to connect to
shares of the same name on multiple servers. The Microsoft applications
gets confused.

- $server1
  - ProductionData
- $server2
  - ProductionData

My user could not open for writing, and other permission errors, an
Excel file on one of the shares because the shares have the same name.
