[Bug 338411] Re: Cannot retreive share list if samba client and server have the same hostname

[David Bensimon]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: samba
  
  samba 2:3.3.1-1ubuntu1
  ubuntu 9.04 (alpha5-20090304)
  
  Samba client and server both have the same hostname. This makes it
  impossible for the client to resolve to the server. The end result is
  that the client is shown the following error:
  
  ==
  Unable to mount location
  Failed to retrieve share list from server
  ==
  
- Changing the client's hostname is a workaround to this issue.
+ Changing the client's hostname is a workaround to this issue. (Modify /etc/hostname /etc/hosts)
+ Connecting to the server by IP address *WITH* share name is another workarround.
