Accessing Server Share using Server Alias Name

-

hi,

we migrated windows 2003 server windows 2008 server today. renamed 2003 machine , created alias 2008 machine same name the 2003 machine had.

we wanted make change transparent users.

we see issues users still being redirected 2003 shares when access alias. if use qualified domain name works okay - access 2008 share.

we've checked dns machines , in synch pointing alias ip address of new 2008 machine.

when user can't access alias nslookup on alias name gets "non existent domain". yet qualified domain name works her.

has experienced similar?

i have little experience these types of issues. grateful advice.


hello,

this seems issue dns suffixes. please make sure used dns suffixes configured.
