This question has been asked throughout the web, but I am simply not able to get it working.
I am Running Windows 8 Pro (x64), when I connect to the office network, I can connect to all network shares except the ones that is on our (NAS).
As soon as I boot into Windows 7, I am able to connect.
So far I have tried the following:
- http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2686098
- http://help.unc.edu/help/connecting-to-nas-with-windows-8/
- http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/w7itpronetworking/thread/c1d2e480-65e8-41ad-b7a4-73d4ba3ca09d
- Windows 8 Pro NAS not recognized? (tried all suggestions)
All of the above with no success.
I also tried the net use
command, to see if it might return additional info, but i get Error 53
net use k: \\omsmds001\
System error 53 has occurred.
The network path was not found.
and
net use k: \\10.0.25.3
System error 53 has occurred.
The network path was not found.
When i ping the device i get no response
When i try and browse the network location, i get an error:
Windows Cannot access \\omsmds001
Error Code: 0x80070035
The network path was not found
I have disabled "SecureNegotiate"
and i can't enable SMB on the device, it is out of my control.
UPDATE I have had some luck here: I connected to a server that is on the domain, i pinged the server again and received a different IP address. I used that IP address and i am now able to map the disk with the IP. using host name still fails in windows 8.
