We have a strange name resolution problem on Windows 7 clients.
(Windows XP clients are working fine!)
If a Windows 7 client is connected more than 7 or 8 hours to our Samba
4 active directory server, we can't
do "ping servername" anymore, but "ping servername.domainname" works
fine.
After logout and login again to the Windows 7 clients everything works!
Can you check what is the ipconfig /all output on windows 7 clients ?
also you should do a tcpdump/wireshark trace on your client to see which
DNS request it is doing.
The main problem is, that all Windows clients access the samba shares
by \\servername\sharename
and not \\servername.domainname\sharename and after 7 or 8 hours our
users can't access the files
or programs on these shares.
What goes wrong here and what is the best way to fix this? I can
change some GPOs and set all
shares to \\servername.domainname\sharename, but if there is a better
solution i would prefer this.
Thx for help! :)
