following **setup** :  
3 computer with SUSE SLED 15.2  
2 Laptop with Windows 10  
NAS Sever Sznology with DSM. DSM is Linux, but an special and in fact very comfortable version of Linux  
The server runs NFS, but not NIS. We use AD network that is supported by Windows and Linux as well.  
DHCP server comes from a Cisco Firewall  
**Problem** :  
Windows can see the see the server.  
Linux, wen you klick on _windows network_ - Unable to access location, Failed to retrieve share listr from Server: No such file or directory.  
SAMBA has been setup  
UserLogon setup  
But Computer name is not resolvable.  
I can add network drives - but only via IP adress (same for printer), but both via SMB or NFS.

SUSE Service had checked it, tried a lot, we made a complete fresh and virgin installation - couldn’t find a solution. It has been reported as bug - but SUSE can’t find a bug, closed the case

Question: What goes wrong here.

@HANS-CHRISTOPH Hi, likely the SMB version on the NAS, which is?  
If you try logging in from the command line on the linux guest and run `smbclient -d 3 -L //<host_ip>/` does it show errors?

Hi Malcom,  
sorry for late reply - was somehow busy. You are really good - always answering. However, i talked with SUSE developer - are German as well 🙂 - and told them only those responses for failure make the system better. Microsoft do that by pulling Metadata - we need to do in different ways. But, SUSE got better - much better - compared to version 11.

The NAS runs both SMB 2 and 3 and large MTU. The detailed version I couldn’t find.

We do not use SMB1 since 2 and 3 are more safe.

@HANS-CHRISTOPH Hi, so looks like just a netbios naming issue, I’m not a samba user, just use sftp/scp etc 😉  
Have a read here: [https://documentation.suse.com/sles/15-SP2/html/SLES-all/cha-samba.html](https://documentation.suse.com/sles/15-SP2/html/SLES-all/cha-samba.html) and suggest a google of `samba+Troubleshooting NetBIOS names`

The PC I tested is in internal zone. All ports should be open?
