• SMB share not found

    When I add a remote SMB share, the GUI walks me through the steps and lets me search for and select the Samba share on my network by "name" (not IP address).

    I then selec the share I want from the pull down and end up with this:

    However, when I hit the "MOUNT" button, I get the error below. It can't find the SMB share by the name that it gave me to use

     

    Jul  9 15:50:20 Tower unassigned.devices: Mount SMB share '//VIDEO/ContaCam' using SMB3 protocol.
    Jul  9 15:50:20 Tower unassigned.devices: Mount SMB command: /sbin/mount -t cifs -o rw,nounix,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,uid=99,gid=100,vers=3.0,credentials='/tmp/unassigned.devices/credentials_ContaCam' '//VIDEO/ContaCam' '/mnt/disks/VIDEO_ContaCam'
    Jul  9 15:50:20 Tower unassigned.devices: SMB3 mount failed: mount error: could not resolve address for VIDEO: Unknown error .

     

    It won't let me change it afterward to tell it the IP address. 

    To make it work, I have to delete it, add a new SMB share and search by IP address. Except now, the location is this ugly:

    /mnt/disks/192.168.xxx.xxx_ContaCam

    Instead of the much nicer:

    /mnt/disks/VIDEO_ContaCam

     

    By the way, I am running version 6.8.3 of Unraid. This used to work when I was on the previous build, I think 6.7.2 based on this:
