I'm trying to map a linux shared folder from Windows Server 2012 R2 but always getting error "the network name cannot be found". I am able to do the same without any issue from my local which is Windows10. I tried to run dos command pushd but that gave error "the request is not supported". If I try net use dos command that gave error "System error 67 has occurred. The network name cannot be found". Please can someone advise what could be the issue? I have tried running the commands by ip and host name and also I can ping the linux server. I can map other windows shared folders.

Please can you advise?
