You are unable to connect to a remote file server by using the server’s host name, but you are able to connect to the remote file server using its IP address. Which of the following could be causing this problem?
  1. DNS
  2. DHCP
  3. SMTP
  4. WINS
Explanation
Answer - A - This problem is associated with the DNS mapping in the server.

Key Takeaway: When the issue relates to connecting to the server using a name, then it is a DNS resolution problem. The DNS database is indexed by name, therefore, each domain must have a name. As you add domains to the hierarchy, the name of the parent domain is appended to its child domain, called a sub domain. Consequently, a domain’s name identifies its position in the hierarchy.
