Net use or net view of multihomed servers

I have a 2003 sp1 fully patched server.
I have two interfaces
the server has a hostname=server1 (type hostname at a prompt)
the server has a FQDN of server1.mydomain.com with IP address 1.1.1.1
in addition it has a secondary IP address on that server whos FQDN is
server2.mydomain.com with IP address 1.1.1.2

ping server1 = works
net view \\server1 = works
net view \\1.1.1.1 = works

ping server2 = works
net view \\server2 = "System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied."
(I am logged on as admin on the box that has the ip address)
net view \\server2.mydomain.com = fails
net use * \\server2.mydomain.com = fails (I get prompted for the username
and then System error 1326 has occurred.)
net view \\1.1.1.2 = works
net use * \\1.1.1.2 =works

nslookup server2.mydomain.com
returns 1.1.1.2

Why does this happen? Any time the FQDN does not match the HOSTNAME then
NET XXX failes.


Thanks in advance. links to support info helpful.

 

I hope that this question was not in the wrong group. It appears to me that
the name resolution is incorrect when attempting the net XXX but every thing
else works.
Anybody have a suggestion as to why this happends, is it by design? It does
make for a hand way to sell more copies of the server. I cant figure out any
other reason that the host name has to match the FQDN in order to resolve the
shares on a server.
