itimpi Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Windows SMB networking is now very unreliable as Microsoft have broken name resolution in recent builds. Accessing the server by its IP address tends to now be the most reliable way to get at Unraid shares. If your Unraid server has a fixed IP address you can try putting that into the hosts file on your Windows system to help with name resolution. 1 Quote Link to comment
