K1000 hostname not working properly

Hi,

I'm having some issues with my K1000 box having issues with the hostname and  FQDN not working for provisioning.

I can ping it at k1000 and it's fine, I can ping it at k1000.domain.com. However as soon as I try to access the share it doesn't work. I've tried both k1000 and k1000.domain.com. Using the IP address to access the share works fine though. When I attempt to provision using an IP address rather than a host name it still attempts to use the hostname and still errors out saying it can't access the server.

Anyone have any ideas on this one?

Thanks,

  • I have the same issue, DNS is fine and it works fine in a browser but not for the network share. - HISDTechGuy 9 years ago

Did you get this solved Drave?

I had somewhat similar problem with other Linux boxes before but not on my kbox. I found the error to be in DNS. This actually happened to me twice! Once it was due to not having a matching record in reverse lookup and the second time it was caused by a duplicate record of sorts.

Not sure if that helps but I thought I'd throw that out there. Let us know if its fixed.

Do you have SSO enabled? Check this out:

Using the kbox IP address for provisioning should work though...

Comments:
  • I've read the article; however the document is lacking in it doesn't tell you how to change the FQDN to IP address for agent provisioning. One other note: we found that if you add a period/dot at the end of the FQDN access is available via name - i.e.: \\kbox.yourcompany.com.\client\agent.... - gke565 9 years ago
  • So I've disabled SSO, just to make sure that's the issue, however I still can't hit the FQDN through Explorer... :/ On the bright side I finally got around to making a script. It's working now if run on the host you're working on. Just have to set it up to allow remote execution. - Drave 9 years ago
  • Just an update, I disabled SSO and using host or FQDN still doesn't work. I'll likely be contacting DELL in the near future about this. - Drave 9 years ago

FYI this is a known bug that's apparently fixed in like 10 updates. Not really though...
