This one doesn't quite fit, since Dfurn21 can access the NAS using its IP address
- Ping works both using IP address and host name
- SMB access works using ip address
- SMB access fails using hostname
- adding hostname to the hosts file doesn't help.
The network is set to private, and the various group policies in the guide you linked in must already be ok, since IP address access works.
Might seem obvious, but perhaps try rebooting both the PC and the NAS next.
