I can access files from my windows 10 pc to my server but I can't access files from Windows server to windows 10 PC.

Question

I have been fighting this issue for a while now. My windows 10 pc's can access the files shared by my Windows Server 2019, but if I try to access the other way I get Check the spelling blah blah blah error message. When I do the more info it gives me that 0x80070035 The Network path isn't found. I have installed the smbv1, done everything else from editing the services Function Discovery to auto along with the others that went along with it. It still will not let me access the shared files from the windows 10 pc. Where do I go from here???

Answer 1

The more bullet proof method is to stand up your own DNS server and have all members use that ip address for DNS exclusively. You may be able to just add the DNS role to existing server 2019.

Answer 2

Both the server and problem workstation must use the static ip address (192.168.1.122) of DNS server listed for DNS and no others such as router or public DNS.

Answer 3

Correct, both the server and problem workstation must use the static ip address (192.168.1.122) of DNS server listed for DNS and no others such as router or public DNS, or set the router to hand out 192.168.1.122 for DNS
