Weird issue with Windows File Cluster resource and DNS resolution

Hi all,

I setup a file server guest cluster with 2 windows server. When I create the cluster resource, Windows make his own DNS records on DC from this resource. For example "fscluster" and give its a virtual IP.

So, everythings works fine, but I just created a DNS record named "NAS" pointing to same IP from "fscluster".

The issue is that when I access to "\fscluster" or "\IP" from windows explorer, everything works fine, I can see all files. But when I try to access "\NAS" explorer shows empty. Seems to access to server who is hosting resource, but not the shared folders of the cluster role. Only happens when I try to access using "\NAS".

Of course dns ip its rigth. I also tried with CNAME instead DNS with no luck.

Any idea what I can doing wrong?

Thank!
