Workaround of CIFS error

When I tried to mount a windows folder on a remote windows computer, such as an active directory or samba, I got this error from time to time.

CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -22

This error can be solved by typing in an actual IP of a remote windows computer instead of a domain name. This tip is from here.
