That is the same error I get when the server doesn't exist.
Can you ping the server in question? If so, try noting its ip address and using that instead.
smb://<ip_address>/InfoSys/SOFTWARE/APPLICATIONS/create
Or as was suggested,
smb://ctrc35.yourdomain.com/InfoSys/SOFTWARE/APPLICATIONS/create
It won't work. Already tried. Here is the ping result on Linux:
mauede@linux-Mimin:~> ping ctrc35 ping: unknown host ctrc35
But if I run the same command on a text terminal from Windows then it pings ...
I could finally connect by reading the IP address from the ping output on Windows and plugging in place of ctcr35
Thank you so much, Maura

Your DNS isn't configured correctly. Find what DNS Servers your Windows machine is using and plug them into your DNS Stuff in YaST. Are you getting an IP via DHCP? If so what type of DHCP Server? Sounds like your root level DNS Suffix should be pushed out via DHCP Server.. Have fun.. Glad you got it working.. Using IP's is ugly.
