Redirect to smb share

[Mugga]

Hello guys,

we just switched from our old qnap system to our freenas system.

At the moment I'm looking into the possibilty to redirect old unc paths via our domain controller to the new freenas system. I altered the dns entry for the old server and entered the ip address of the freenas system. But when trying to access the share via client, I'm getting asked for credentials which are not getting accepted.

Does anyone know a way how build such a redirect?

On the active directory side you will need to (in addition to the redirect) add Kerberos Service Principal Name entries with the old server names.

The Windows clients are expecting to use kerberos, but they can't do that because you haven't configured it properly in AD. Windows clients will refuse to downgrade from kerberos to ntlmssp for authentication (which is a good thing).
