Problem mounting share on my router

On my TW KDE system I am unable to access or mount a share which is defined on my router unless I force CIFS to use vers=1.0 on the mount command. Is there any way to get my system to default to v1.0 for both mounting by command an using Samba. I tried clientmin protpcol set to SMB1 in the smb.conf but testparm shows it is ignored. The annoying thing is that I can access it on Windows 7 without issue and without any additional parameters.

Hi
So on the client machine edit /etc/samba/smb.conf in the [global] options for this;


Server requested LANMAN password (share-level security) but 'client lanman auth = no' or 'client ntlmv2 auth = yes'

On my system I use;


client use spnego = no
client ntlmv2 auth = no

I would guess you need;


client lanman auth = yes
client ntlmv2 auth = no

Well I added your guess and for good measure the spnego as well. Now smbclient works and the smb protocol from dolphin also accesses the shares OK. However I can only mount them using -o vers=1.0 with a mount cifs command, unless I force that it does not work, also mounting from SMB4K (my preferred way) does not work either. Quite why this is all a bit messy I don’t know. ZyXEL made a bad decision on how to configure Samba in their router as you cannot specify a workgroup.

Stuart

As a workaround, you could put all the mounting options in a shell script, and call that to mount the share,

You might need to force with the ‘client min protocol’ directive in smb.conf (global section). For example

client min protocol = NT1

For more info

man smb.conf

I tried that but SMB4K still fails as does the mount command without specifying vers=1.0.
