DNS 323 in a Windows Domain looses mapped drives

Hi guys,

I used my DNS 323 with two sata drives (in a RAID 1) now for more than a year in a workgroup enviroment and it all worked fine. Now we "upgraded" to a Microsoft SBS 2003 and established a domain to use Exchange etc.. I would still like to use my good DNS 323 as a file server for some of the Data.

As there is now secret Data on the DNS I have removed the user management because otherwise I have no chance assessing the DNS from within a domain.

We have a lot of mapped drives from the DNS onto the domain Computers. When I log into the domain it takes a while till the drives are mapped (the login process takes about 1.5 minutes) but then it works fine. After a while the mapped drives don't work any more and the explorer just freezes. When I then log out and log in again it is all fine till the whole process starts again and the explorer is killed. That happens on all computers.

My firmware is 1.05 and for some reasons after I had it updated last december it showed tow volumes (volume 1 and volume 1-1) in the network but that had not caused any trouble.

Any advice? I have seen in the WIKI that there is a way to bring the DNS into a domain but as I am not very firm with Linux/Samba I doubt whether I can do it. I would prefer if theres a "Non-Hack" solution to that problem.

Thanks

If it works then stops working, there is something weird going on. Does Event Viewer show anything on the domain computer?  Is it explorer freezing that is causing the mapped drives to stop working or vice versa?  How do you know?

Re: DNS 323 in a Windows Domain looses mapped drives

Make entries on you dns server on the domain to include the address of the DNS-323.  You are probably losing domain name recognition of the DNS-323.  If you do not have a dns server running, then update the hosts files on each of the windows computers, or access the DNS-323 using it's IP address instead of its name.


DNS-323     F/W: 1.04b84  H/W: A1  ffp: 0.5  Drives: 2X 400 GB Seagate SATA-300
DNS-323     F/W: 1.05b28  H/W: B1  ffp: 0.5  Drives: 2X 1 TB  WD SATA-300
DSM-G600   F/W: 1.02       H/W: B                Drive:  500 GB WD ATA
