[Lug-nuts] Re: DNS problem

Hi Brian, The behavior does not implicate configuration, or if it does, it implicates configuration for exactly one domain name, and I have no idea how THAT happens: 1. I can do everything I should be able to do if I use the IP address, 10.1.1.80, and not the domain name. 2. I can do everything I should be able to do if I use a different domain name, NASX.TCLC.org, with exactly the same IP address, 10.1.1.80. 3. I can do everything I should be able to do with the domain name, NAS0.TCLC.org, except reference that NAS with Windows. I think this behavior indicates something Windows-specific, since whatever is preventing my use of "NAS0.TCLC.org" only prevents in on Windows machines. I am not prevented from any investigation of the domain name, meaning Windows knows about it and has a correct evaluation and willingly tells me whatever I want to know. I am prevented from using it: "net use n: \\NAS0.TCLC.org\d0" An illustration from PowerShell: PS H:\> dir \\NAS0.TCLC.org\d0 dir : Cannot find path '\\NAS0.TCLC.org\d0' because it does not exist. PS H:\> dir \\10.1.1.80\d0 Directory: \\10.1.1.80\d0 Mode LastWriteTime Length Name ---- ------------- ------ ---- d----- 2023-01-16 23:30 Justice.TCLC.org PS H:\> dir \\NASX.TCLC.org\d0 Directory: \\NASX.TCLC.org\d0 Mode LastWriteTime Length Name ---- ------------- ------ ---- d----- 2023-01-16 23:30 Justice.TCLC.org Thanks for the help, -- Chris.
