Connecting with:

PC: \\136.165.239.210\usr or \\136.165.239.211\usr will resolve mapping to the H: drive.

Mac: smb://136.165.239.210/data or smb://136.165.239.211/data will resolve mapping to the I: drive.

Additionally a Windows PC May Need to use AD if an error about GUEST connections appears

Have the user map to the I: Drive using AD\UserID (so that the mapping goes thru the AD domain).
