Sharing WSeB Server drives to Win 10/11 Clients

<< < (3/3)

ChrisGWarp:
Well. I'm back on this old chestnut. :)

I have a Win 7 Ultimate RC1 (of all things) VM! And that WORKS. I can mount an OS/2 share and DIR works.
I have a Win 7 SP1 VM and that's broken too. I've played with all of the SecPol.msc and RegEdit settings I can find, but although I can mount an OS/2 share, the DIR shows incorrect function calls.

To be clear, has anyone managed to get any Win 7 SP1 versions talking to an NT or OS/2 share?

Or, failing that, does someone have some setup instruction for SAMBA for WSeB (4.50 and 4.52)?

Cheers,
-Chris

later versions of windows have deprecated SMB1 and the legacy NTLM authentication. https://winsides.com/enable-smb-1-0-cifs-file-sharing-support-windows-11/ might help....

I tried that for years after Windows 7 and higher SMB 1 support is complete broken is my experience. I tested with a lot of LAN MAN settings in the registry but gave up.
SMB 1 support from Windows 10/11 seems to be to much broken. Maybe some magic registry setting can get it to work. But I spent long nights on this.

Chris,

I am running WSeB on bare metal - an HP Elitedesk 800 mini that consumes about 12 watts at the desktop.

That system is an AOS 5.1 install minus the networking, with the networking from WSeB installed on top of that.

I am running the Samba 3.6.25 server for connections from earlier Macs, Win7, Win10, and connect OS/2 and WinXP via Netbuei to the WSeB.  I have not been able to get any version of Samba server greater than 3.6.25 running correctly. I run a domain for WSeB and a different domain for samba.  Previously I had WSeB running on top of ECS and used the same domain name for both samba and WSeB, but to do that you have to connect in a special sequence or you cannot connect to both at the same time: either samba first or WSeB first, I don't remember which.  With different domain names you can connect to both at the same time without worrying about connecting in the correct sequence.

In order to connect the Win10 machine I had to add the line
    max protocol = SMB2
to the samba.conf  file on the samba server.

I have not been able to get any of the family's latest Macs to connect to this setup but the older Macs connect fine.

With the WSeB on AOS 5.1 I cannot get the samba configuration to work when adding a user.  So I use the WSeB on ECS machine to make a configuration and transfer that the WSeB on AOS machine.  You probably wont have that issue if you are running a "pure" WSeB install.

The other issue I have found with samba is it gets very unhappy when transferring a very large set (number of) of files - like for instance backing up the entire C drive by copying the individual files over.  It works fine if those same files are zipped into one large file and that large file is copied across the network.  This is not an issue with WSeB.
