Issue Description
A CIFS share is created on a storage device, but the shared folder cannot be accessed on a Windows host. The error code is 0x80070035, indicating that the network path was not found.
Handling Process
1. Log in to the storage device and verify that the CIFS share configuration on the storage device is correct.
2. The service IP address of the Windows operating system can be pinged in minisystem mode of the storage system.
3. When the Telnet command is executed using the storage IP address and port 445 for connecting to the host, the port fails to connect to the host.
4. Enable port 445 on the network firewall. The problem is solved.
Root Cause
Port 445 used by CIFS fails to be connected, because the port is disabled on the firewall.
Solution
After port 445 on the network firewall is enabled, you can check whether the port is accessible by running the telnet IP address:445 command. For details about how to enable ports on the firewall, see the specific firewall configuration manual.
Suggestion and Summary
Enable the following ports for file system sharing:
Ports 88, 389, 445, and 464
