Hello,
I have an issue with the following configuration:
Host:
Computer Name: saturn
Windows 10 (Version 1709)
VMware® Workstation 14 Pro 14.1.2 build-8497320
network share: satshare1
VM:
Computer Name: xenon
openSUSE Leap 42.2
Network: NAT
I had no problems accessing the network share 'satshare1' from within the VM 'xenon'. Read and write to and from the share worked without any issue. But out of the blue I am not able to access the network share. I get the error message 'timeout on server saturn'. Even trying to re-mount the network share failed. I can access network shares (e.g. groupdata) from our NAS from within the VM. So generally the network access is working well from the VM.
I did some tests with another PC (real hardware) 'neptun' running Windows 7. From this PC I am able to connect to the share 'satshare1'.
The problem might be caused by software updates on my host system. I switched of the firewall on the host, same issue.
Any hints or ideas how to go on would be helpful.
Thanks for your attention,
Michael
