I think I had this working awhile back, but now I can't connect over a Win 10 machine. Apparently this is because Windows (since the fall creator update to version 1709) no longer allows logging in as a guest - at least the Enterprise Edition. However I get the same error even when I specify the user/pass word in the net command like this:
C:>net use u: \192.168.12.12transfer /user:mike pass
System error 1272 has occurred.
You can't access this shared folder because your organization's security policies
block unauthenticated guest access.
These policies help protect your PC from unsafe or malicious devices on the network.
The share configuration in smb.conf
looks like this:
[transfer]
comment = file transfer share
path = /usr/local/transfer
writable = yes
browsable = yes
valid users = mike
create mask = 0777
directory mask = 0777
It should be possible to configure this so that it works securely... some evidence is that my QNAP server - which uses Samba - continues to work (but with a non-guest user).
This is a Microsoft blurb on the issue:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4046019/guest-access-smb2-disabled-by-default-in-windows-10-server-2016
I am really not sure what I should try next - the number of Samba configuration settings is vast. Any ideas?

I think this restriction - the default not allowing guest login to a samba share - even when it is required - is specific to the EE. Higher security standards I suppose.

I read about a flag to disable it, but that won't help me for long as Group Policy will just periodically flatten it again.

Is there a way to specify Samba version 3.00 on thenet
command?

Why? I guess you can enable/disable the various versions: support.microsoft.com/en-sg/help/2696547/â¦
