Hi all
we had the same symptom with Xerox Scanners at a customers network.
We migrated / Transitioned from FAS2050 7.3.7 7-Mode to FAS2552A 8.2.2P1 Clustered OnTAP last weekend.
Before the migration the Xerox Scanners could connect to the FAS2050 CIFS Share using a domain user and safe the scanned documents to a UNC path.
Scanner Config:
Document Path: \\<filername>\<sharename>\<directory>
username <domain>\<username>
password <password>
The Scanners (various models with different Firmware Releases) could not access the new migrated share on Clustered dataOnTAP.
After trying many different options we found this workaround:
We created a local user on the CIFS SVM with access-rights to the cifs share
Scanner Config:
Document Path: \\<filername>\<sharename>\<directory>
username <username>
password <password>
This forces the NetApp CIFS Server to accept ntlm authentication and it worked fine.
