I rebooted my workstation computer only to find that my mapped drive is disconnected. I try to reconnect using the "shared" computers IP address (\\10.2.203.110\Shared) but it will not connect. So while waiting for my workstation I went to another workstation and it is connected by way of the IP address. I went back to my workstation try the computers name (\\access\shared) and that will work. If I wait an hour or so the IP will start working. If I wait over night the computer name does not work but the IP will.
This just started after updating most of the workstations to v2002.
All workstations are Windows 10 v2002 with static ip's. (There are about 40 workstations)
The DNS server is Server 2008R2. (DHCP is handled by the server.)
The computer I am accessing is Windows 7 Pro with a static ip of "10.2.203.110" computer name of "access"
The drive mapping is done through Group Policies using the ip address.
All are up to date.
I have tried all the ipconfig stuff: flush, release, renew.
I have set the windows Update Peer 2 Peer to off. The SMB 1.0 client is checked, Network discovery is on.
What am I missing?
Alan
