Hi. First post so here goes.
I've been going mad trying to connect to my win 10 box from manjaro (latest release). Finally found i needed to install smb1 on windows. I've read that this protocol is insecure so my question is : How do I make Manjaro use smb2 or 3?
Cheers and thanks in advance

To answer your question, in the Global section of your smb.conf file, add a line "protocol = SMB3" ( without the quotes, and restart samba.

I dought this will fix your problem, so, if it doesn't, popst some more information. What version of Samba,
post your smb.conf file and any errors you are seeing.

I also strongly suggest you do some searching for Windows 10 connecting to linux. I would bet some of your problems are in Win 10.

Welcome to LinuxQuestions.

Neither samba or smb.conf are installed by default which is version 4.10. However, the default settings in the smb.conf file configures client min protocol = SMB2 which should be also be the min protocol for Win 10.

However, the file browser should have a built in samba client and while you may not be able to browse and find the Win 10 computer you can directly enter its IP address/share name. Which file browser depends on the desktop and the basic syntax is:

smb://IP_address/share_name

Half way there, but wrong Samba version, you need 4.11.0 upwards to default to SMBv2, on earlier versions you need to add:

client min protocol = SMB2_02
server min protocol = SMB2_02

To the global part of smb.conf to turn off SMBv1

Well, I couldn't remember the version but I did post the default smb.conf already has the directive client min protocol = SMB2. I can connect successfully to my W10 system from Manjaro using the file browser and mounting a share from the command line without additional changes.

Sorry about late response: Hard drive died.
Info: version of samba 4.10.10

Hope this is what's needed

I way to verify if you can see the windows 10 shares is using the smbclient utility.

smbclient -L windows_ip_address
