For software testing, I have one machine that will attempt to access network shares under a certain hostname.
I want to host all these shares on the one machine, and not access the network - so I disconnect it from the network completely.
In my hosts file, I created an entry 127.0.0.1 somealias
, so now I can ping somealias
.
Now, Windows Explorer (and net use
) act like they are willing to access \somealiasshare
(and are able to access \localhostshare
) but suddenly ask for username and password. No matter how I configure my sharing, my usernames, my passwords, and my share permissions, the error is along these lines: incorrect username or password
Using net use
, I get more information: System error 86

The solution is to tell LanmanServer that you have an alternative hostname using regedit
:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetservicesLanmanServerParameters
- Add a new String Value called
OptionalNames
and give it the newsomealias
value. - Reboot the computer (or maybe restart service Server)
After two days of searching, I correctly deduced that the problem is not with the sharing settings, users, or name resolving. It is with LanmanServer (the Server service).
A successful connection is made to the local host, when connecting to somealias
. After that however, during authentication, the service doesn't recognize the hostname you are connecting to.
