Finally SAMBA problems fixed for W10 plus access to Non Windows

Hi there
finally Windows connectivity working FROM Samba plus access to all Non windows devices (Smart TV / Amazon TV stick with Kodi installed for NAS access) phones etc.

What a dog !!!! but Windows networking --quote Shakespeare or something "T'was ever thus" !!!!

Solution (after latest W10 update)

Enable ALL the SMB V1 items not just the top 3, AND enable the SMB direct - both in Turn Windows on and off

In Samba.config (smb.conf) remove all Max protocol stuff

Now it works



Now off to pub to watch UK football !!! and some booze here : if anybody is visiting - always plenty of tourists at weekends. !!

The English Pub Popular pub in Reykjavik, Iceland

Cheers

Thanks for this - been trying to get this worked out for a while.

BTW - I did not need to enable SMB Direct on Win10 1709.
