EDIT!: An update to this six months later….
So here is a quick one; ever had issues with DFS (Distributed File System) share being unable to resolve their name properly at seemingly random times?
If the answer is yes, here is a quick solution to test:
Try appending a “.” (dot) at the end of the fully qualified domain.
So \\anitblog.no\DFSRoot
would become \\anitblog.no.\DFSRoot
.
The reason for this is that appending the dot to a FQDN makes it an absolute query instead of an relative one.
Instead of rephrasing someone else, here is an explanation about dots in name resolution:
