hi everyone.
here is the situation.
i have a win2k2008r2 server with two shared folders on it. i try to open shared folders on a client. i enter the famous "\\ip address of the server" command and it will ask for my credentials. i enter them and it just keeps repeating the process over and over returning the message "logon failure: wrong username or bad password" or something like that. now i try to do the thing in the other famous way as "\\name of the server" and bam. the shared folders open in my face.
so i am just able to open the shared folders if i enter the name and not the ip address. for the record. i have many other clients that doesn't have this problem and can open the folders via ip and vice versa.
did a lots of search and came up with nothing. any help would be highly appreciated.
