Usually that message means that in your LAN exist another machine with the same name that were Alfresco was installed.

Do first the verification of this issue. The CIFS service is identified by the_name_of_machine_A

I am also seeing this error. I have just downloaded and installed version 2.1.

There is not another machine on the network with the same name.

The server has multiple IP addresses.

The server is running on VMware.

Could any of the above be affecting this? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Jon.

I have found another post that describes the solution to this problem:

http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=4187&highlight=qos+printer+sharing

To be more precise, it was disabling the File and Printer sharing that fixed the problem for us. When we have File and printer sharing enabled we get the following:

Z:\>nbtstat -n

Local Area Connection:
Node IpAddress: [x.x.x.x] Scope Id: []

                NetBIOS Local Name Table

       Name               Type         Status
    ———————————————
    MACHINE_NAME     <00> UNIQUE      Registered
    MACHINE_NAME     <20> UNIQUE      Registered
    DOMAIN_NAME          <00> GROUP       Registered
    DOMAIN_NAME          <1E> GROUP       Registered
    MACHINE_NAME_A   <20> UNIQUE      Registered
    MACHINE_NAME_A   <00> UNIQUE      Registered

When File and printer sharing is disabled:

Z:\>nbtstat -n

Local Area Connection:
Node IpAddress: [x.x.x.x] Scope Id: []

                NetBIOS Local Name Table

       Name               Type         Status
    ———————————————
    MACHINE_NAME     <00> UNIQUE      Registered
    DOMAIN_NAME          <00> GROUP       Registered
    DOMAIN_NAME          <1E> GROUP       Registered
    MACHINE_NAME_A   <20> UNIQUE      Registered
    MACHINE_NAME_A   <00> UNIQUE      Registered

Notice the duplicate machine name has disappeared.

Thanks,
