Description
I couldn't understand why the netfs option would never work on my Windows machine as the mount action would always return host is down until I found out that Nanobox requires enabling the "SMB 1.0/CIFS Server" feature component for any netfs mount to work with Nanobox.
By default this is disabled in newer Windows 10 builds. I originally thought that the CIFS mount is limited to SMBv1, but now I'm not sure. Running the following PowerShell command below on Windows 10 client, shows that SMB 2.0+ is enabled for the server side, so in theory shares created shouldn't use SMBv1 if support for a higher version is possible, it just means that a client could fallback to SMBv1 and still connect successfully.
Get-SmbServerConfiguration | Select EnableSMB2Protocol
EnableSMB2Protocol
------------------
True
However, you still need enable the 1.0 feature, to any netfs mount to work at all.
General question, can Nanobox mount shares via CIFS with SMB 2.0 and above?
