windows access to router files using SMB via a VRRP interface

Tue Oct 20, 2020 7:24 pm

Have had SMB read access from a windows system to a files on an 1100AHx4 ethernet interface working successfully for extended time with no problems. Access to the router was via router ether3.
Just added VRRP to the 1100AHx4 on the ether3 interface.
Now mapping a drive from windows to this interface is no longer is successful. Has anyone configured this successfully?

On Router, where ether3 now has vrrp1 device assigned to it:
/interface ethernet set [ find default-name=ether3 ] l2mtu=1598 speed=100Mbps
/interface vrrp add interface=ether3 name=vrrp1 on-backup="" on-master="" preemption-mode=no priority=200 vrid=49
/ip address add address=10.219.24.252 interface=ether3 network=10.219.24.0
/ip address add address=10.219.24.254 interface=vrrp1 network=10.219.24.254
/ip smb set enabled=yes interfaces=ether3,vrrp1
/ip smb users set [ find default=yes ] name=UserName password=password1 read-only=yes

On Windows system, the procedure is:
net use "\\10.219.24.254\pub" password1 /user:UserName
xcopy \\10.219.24.254\pub D:\RouterPub /S /D /Y
net use "\\10.219.24.254\pub" /delete

The windows "net use" command returns with error:
System error 53 has occurred.
The network path was not found.

However, the windows "net use" command returns successfully if we attempt using IP address 10.219.24.252.

Has anyone successfully gained SMB access to a VRRP interface?
