Hi,
I am new to these forums, I have been searching but I can't find an answer to my problem.
At my work we have just converted our Openfiler device to FreeNAS. We are running Active Directory and CIFS. We have a 3TB zfs volume with a number of datasets each with a single CIFS share. AD is working according to all tests we can find.
Our problems started when we tried to access the system via the hostname we had configured during setup, "actfs01". If we try to access the system using \\actfs01\, \\actfs01.domain.local\ we get prompted for a username and password. The only username and password that works is the AD admin user which is set as the owner of the dataset, other valid AD username and password combinations fail. However, if we access the system using it's ip address, \\10.0.0.6\, or \\freenas\, or \\freenas.intranet.local\ the system works perfectly, no authentication popup appears. AD authentication appears to be working when accessed this way becuase if a user tries to access a share when they are not the owner or a member of the group (AD) then they are denied access as they should be, users who are members of the group are correct allowed to access the share.
We have noticed that /etc/rc.conf and /etc/local/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf both still have "freenas" as the hostname, changing these (in /conf/base/etc/) and rebooting seems to have no effect.
I should also mention that when we access the system using \\freenas\ this is only an alias in DNS, DNS is correctly configured to actfs01, and the FreeNAS server is still set to actfs01 as the hostname.
We initially had this problem in 8.0.3, then rebuilt in 8.0.2 with the same result.
Any help would be appreciated!!!
