Guest Ole Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Hi Everybody, I have a set of PDC and WTS running on Server 2008 (Enterprise x64). I have problems accessing files that seem to be SMB related. Server 2008 uses SMB2. Somebody told me that I could activate SMB1 on those servers. I have created a 32Bit DWORD called SMB1 in HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrenControlSet\LanmanServer\Parameters and set the value to 1. (on both servers) This did not have any effect, netmon still reports SMB2. Can anybody help? Thanks for your time Ole
Guest Meinolf Weber Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Re: Server 2008: Downgrading to SMB1 Hello Ole, SMB2 is used only if both machines support it, if this is not the case automatically SMB1 is used: http://trycatch.be/blogs/roggenk/archive/2007/11/04/smb-v2-0-in-windows-server-2008-amp-windows-vista.aspx So in your case SMB2 is correct between 2008 servers. What are the problems with accessing files? Please describe more detailed and also post error messages and event viewer entries if exist.

Guest Ole Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Re: Server 2008: Downgrading to SMB1 Hi Meinolf, I have posted my problems before. They are related to mup and mrxsmb. Many applications crash, because they suddenly cannot access their files on the server. I have opened this Thread called "MrxSMB ID 50 Server 2008" on August 12th without any response. (I don't know how to link to that thread in Windows mail...) Now, I have found out that SMB2 is definitely responsible for these crashes. I have found out how to disable SMB2 and everything works fine now - for the first time in 4 months(!!!) Any ideas or comments on that?
