Unable to join ADS when netbios name has underscore
Hello, we have a new ReadyNas 3138 with Firmware 6.9.2 Setup was smooth and now we try to integrate the users with our existing AD. The problem we are facing is, that the nebios name is always ...
But it's in the Netbios Domain name, not in the host names.
And the RFC isn't relevant for Microsoft products anyway, they had their own "standards" in the past.
The fqdn is valid and rfc 1123 compliant.

I hear you. Note I don't work for Netgear either.
But at the moment I think your only option is to change your netbios name to remove the underscore. I don't know of any workaround.
Thanks (and no offence meant by my previous reply)

None taken :smileyhappy:
It did work with AUTO as the Netbios name.
After "apply" it fills in the correct Netbios name, including the underline.
So later on we can't save it anymore, but chaning it back to AUTO works once more.
It works for me this way, thanks
