Data Domain Issue Accessing Shares

I am setting up shares on our DD160 for some SQL backups I'm going to be running. I 6 Windows 2008 R2 64-bit servers plus 4 Windows 7 laptops that need to access these shares. When I access the shares (using \\datadomain\share and \\datadomainip\share) from my laptop or 3 of the 6 servers I can access the shares fine. However, on three of my servers I get a network error (0x80004005) and can't access the shares. There is no restriction limiting access to certain clients or users in the share configuration. I have verified that "Client for Microsoft Networks" is enabled on the problem servers, IPv6 is disabled, the firewall is turned off on each of these clients, I've verified the registry settings for the network provider, and the servers can all ping the DD160 by DNS name and IP, nslookup works on these servers as well.

Any suggestions why these 3 servers can't access the shares when my laptop and 3 other servers have no problem?

Thanks.

I haven't tried that yet. How do I do this? How can I verify if it's disabled?


Thanks.

Thanks dynamox. I disabled this and then rebooted and now all of the servers can access the Data Domain shares.

Just to add something to this thread...


SMB signing is supported from DDOS 5.2.4.1

To enable it

cifs option set "server signing" auto

For more information, please review the releases notes of DDOS 5.2.4.1

support told me enabling that option on DD might have negative impact on performance.

And that cannot be more true...

But imagine is a security requirement in your organization...

You can still enable it and it will work, although performance will decrease.

Cheer,

Gonzalo

This is the fix for the problem

cifs option set "server signing"

This option needs to be enabled on the DD side for SMB1 servers

it's for the entire system (there is only one CIFS server)

so this change will affect all cifs shares?

Command is

     cifs option set "server signing"

Is there any way to see all options?

cifs option show doesn't display server signing.


Is it possible to set up similar and for nfs shares?
