Do we really want to revert this defaults change that Samba maintainers made, in order to cope with a guest OS which was end-of-life 11 years ago ? It feels questionable to me. Maybe QEMU's command line needs to include an option to set the min protocol version, so that we don't need to hardcode this obsolete protocol version in the source. Regards, Daniel

Sure, but is it that relevant for a VM? I mean, it's "min" protocol, newer Win will negotiate the latest. > Do we really want to revert this defaults change that > Samba maintainers made, in order to cope with a guest OS which was > end-of-life 11 years ago ? It feels questionable to me. It's 6 years, Vista is 3. (The current default still allows Vista.) > Maybe QEMU's command line needs to include an option to set the min > protocol version, so that we don't need to hardcode this obsolete protocol > version in the source. That would be great. Though I have no idea how to add one :). Something like "-net user,smb=/home/smb,smbminproto=NT1" would be perfect by me. thanks,

Samba changed the default of server min protocol from LANMAN1 (very old protocol) to SMB2_02 (only Vista and newer) in commit 840b8501b436 (docs-xml: change "server min protocol" to SMB2_02). WXP guests cannot use the samba shares since then as it uses a protocol newer than LANMAN1, but older than SMB2_02: NT1 protocol. So set 'server min protocol' in the samba config used in qemu to NT1. This restores support for WinNT and newer (WXP including). Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> --- net/slirp.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
