Hi Brian,
Perhaps one of the following will help diagnose what is going on
with the connection.
use Wireshark to see the difference?
What does the log file say for samba
It is clear that when the NAS joins the domain and makes a DNS entry,
it is doing something that corrupts that domain name. I cannot find any
distinctions in any listing, so I have no idea what is being done. This
may actually be a "Feature" of the NAS for which there is a preference
setting.
I have managed to enter several domain names for IP 10.1.1.80 which
worked, "C:\> dir <XXX>.TCLC.org\d0" until I named the NAS
<XXX> and
joined the domain. From that point on, that specific domain name was
now corrupted -- even when I changed the name of the NAS and I deleted
and re-entered that domain name. It is not clear if there is a less
draconian rehabilitation, but deleting all known instances and caches,
and re-booting seems to do the trick.
Now that I have a clear mechanism, I should be able to search for
similar experiences and/or open a support ticket with ASUS.
So, you didn't snoop the wire? My calculus teacher used to say, "What do
we do now? Punt?" Open Wireshark. snoop. investigate.
