I am currently trying to look up the ip address of a mounted smb share for the purpose of accessing it via rclone. Ive tried many solutions, including the ones specified in [This Thread](https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/10956/finding-the-remote-ip-address-used-by-a-mounted-smb-share) , but these didnt work as the commands couldnt identify the name:
-c 1 nas-smb.local
yielded
: cannot resolve bread._smb._tcp.local: Unknown host
and
lookup bread._smb._tcp.local
to resolve: filename too long
All i have is the local name bread._smb._tcp.local i know from mounting it via Finder - i tried pinging bread.local with the following result:
36 bytes from xyxyxyxy.t-ipconnect.de (unrelated IP): Destination Net Unreachable
Vr HL TOS  Len   ID Flg  off TTL Pro  cks      Src      Dst
 4  5  00 5400 9c79   0 0000  3f  01 f817 192.168.1.189  192.168.100.10
I assumed the Destination 192.168.100.10 the IP im searching but trying to connect to that IP directly or mounting to it yielded no result either. How can I look up these IP addresses for .local on macOS?
