[Samba] VPN and negative auth cache?!

[Marco Gaiarin]

Situation: Win7 portable system joined to a Samba AD domain, with CSC (AKA
'Offline Files and Folders').

Sometimes when the system conect to the VPN, network drives are inaccessible
(red X) and if i try to connect, authentication request popups.
In logs i see:

	[2021/11/26 11:00:07.973447,  0] ../../lib/util/access.c:365(allow_access)
	  Denied connection from 10.5.12.6 (10.5.12.6)

as if an ACL apply. But there's no ACL in that share (other share in the
same server have).

If i try to connect to a different alias/cname of the server, works.


Could be that if i try to connect to \\servername\share1 that have the ACL,
subsequent calls to \\servername\share2 get 'negative cache' denied?


Seems really strange...


PS. and note that this seems to happen randomly; if the user disconnect and
    reconect, all shares go OK...
