Unable to connect to FreeNAS from OS X

[Patrol02]

I went to all my windows machines and made sure that they will not attempt to become a master, and they don't now. I monitored it a bit and I see that my freenas machine always wins elections and is always a master.

However, freenas is not visible on windows machines under "computer" node. It is accessible via \\freenas though.

In contrast on MacOS I can see "freenas" under "shared" in Finder, but I cannot connect to it. When I try it says that "there was a problem" and "the server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time".
Trying to access it via "smb://freenas" is also unsuccessful, however if I use the IP address it works.

Is it a problem with FreeNAS/FreeBSD Samba implementation/configuration? I have a couple of linux machines here at home (openelec, ubuntu) and when I run samba daemon on them it works as a charm...

My SMB configuration includes the following:

Code:

domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
os level = 128
wins support = yes

but, again, being a master doesn't seem to help with this issue.

In other news, the sky is blue. News at eleven.

What OS X version? And what are the min and max SMB versions set up?

 

[Patrol02]

Latest, Sierra.
And SMB is set to min=SMB2, max=SMB3

 

[Ericloewe]

Try setting the max to SMB2.

Do(es) the Mac(s) have to access the same shares as the Windows machines? If not, you might enjoy using NFS instead.
