Hello,
We got many CIFS shares accessible by their dns names but not with their IP addresses, someone can tell me why ?
The other way around happens in many cases but not this way.
Can you confirm the IPs you are trying to access are correct either by using Ping or nslookup?
hi,
thanks for your help :
I can ping IP adresses, I can ping DNS names, I can ping FQDN... no firewall, the problem is general in the active directory... noone can access by IP.
I restarted my machine many times, ipconfig /flushdns....
It may be that the Active Directory is configured to only support Kerberos authentication, and that requires the use of host names, not IP addresses. I would suggest opening a support case via Support Connect.
