How compatible is Solaris 11.4 with smb 3.1.1

Andrew WatkinsMar 14 2019 — edited May 28 2019

Hi,

I have been playing with smb on solaris 11.4. It is a follow on from another discussion  Windows SMB client performance issues

So, I thought I would do some more test so I loaded Ubunta on VirtualBox.

Solaris 11.4 Server:

Solaris# sharectl get smb |grep protocol

client_maxprotocol=1

server_minprotocol=2

server_maxprotocol=3

Ubuntu mount Windows 2016 Server share:

     mount.cifs -o vers=3.0  works OK

Ubuntu mount Solaris 11.4 Server SMB share:

     mount.cifs -o vers=3.0  works FAILS

     mount.cifs -o vers=2.1  works OK

     mount.cifs -o vers=2.0  works OK

Ubuntu mount Solaris 11.4 Server SAMBA share:

     mount.cifs -o vers=3.0  works OK

Been looking at the documentation but not find much except

Note - The Oracle Solaris OS provides a Server Message Block (SMB) protocol server and client implementations. The SMB server implementation includes support for numerous SMB dialects including SMB 3.0, SMB 2.1, SMB 2.0, and SMB 1. The SMB client implementation includes support for SMB 1.

Thanks
