Can't access shares on 2008 R2 using cname


i need clients access server on alternate name.

server name is: cgserver01
domain cg.local

i have created cname called 'cg' points cgserver01, need spoof name of historical server.

now, can access usual shares on server if use fully-qualified cname - instance \\cg.cg.local\sharename. however, if use shorthand (\\cg\sharename) shares visible, empty.

i'm guessing may because cname same domain name, there way around this? have ton of indesign documents have hard-coded references files on old server in format \\cg\share need spoof name if possible.

can help?

thanks

you happen use dfs? domain root dfs namespace use domainname, netbios \\cg\share , might have conflict there
