Machine scanned by IP, not hostname

Machine scanned by IP, not hostname

Hello.

I have a machine inside an AD domain which I have to create manually (because during the domain scan it fails with 'No response received from workstation) so I put its hostname as its name, but the scan fails again.

The hostname is 'MARKETING' and the IP is 101.0.0.70.

It is correctly scanned if I create it manually and I put its IP address as its name. It's very curious because the result of the scan is saved under 'MARKETING' host, not under 101.0.0.70 host details.

When I try to scan it using its IP address, using a packet sniffer, I've seen that SD+ sends:
1�) 3 ping to the PC
2�) then connects to TCP port 7
3�) then connects to UDP port 8001 (I'm not very sure of this)
4�) then connects to TCP port 135 and starts requesting data

When I try to scan it using its hostname, using a packet sniffer, I've seen that SD+ sends:
1�) 3 ping to the PC
2�) nothing more happens

I've checked if the hostname to IP address resolution was failing, but it works ok (and SD+ pings correctly the PC).

What can be wrong?

Thanks in advance.
