SMB is more understandable though, since you have more trust for things on your local network, and an attacker usually won't have control over those resources. And it's a fairly common and reasonable expectation in a business environment that network drives appear as part of the filesystem.

Whereas a domain name over the open internet is an entirely different story.

Its been a while since i've done windows stuff, but i thought you could use IP addresses in addition to netbios names for smb - \\1.2.3.4\share\file

You can use \\domain.name\share\ as well.
