I recently needed to make Windows 7 work with NetWare CIFS\u00a0 (remember that I’m yourNetWareGuy.com, too)…\u00a0 The good news is that it seems to work great!\u00a0 The bad news is that Microsoft changed the default behavior for the CIFS client side of things since the “old” days, so you have to make a mild tweak to make it work.\u00a0 Here’s what I did…<\/p>\n
On the Windows 7 machine, fire up a Microsoft Management Console (MMC):<\/p>\n
Start button, Run…, type in “mmc” and hit enter<\/p>\n
Add the Snap-In for Group Policy:<\/p>\n
File, Add\/Remove Snap-in…, Group Policy Object Editor, Add, and you can leave it set to “Local Computer”<\/p>\n
Browse to, and expand:<\/p>\n
Local Computer Policy
\nComputer Configuration
\nWindows Settings
\nSecurity Settings
\nLocal Policies<\/p>\n
…and select:<\/p>\n
Security Options<\/p>\n
…and scroll down to:<\/p>\n
Network Security: LAN Manager authentication level Properties<\/p>\n
You can read the “Explain” tab for the reasoning, but you just need to set the setting to:<\/p>\n
Send LM & NTLM responses<\/p>\n
…and that’s it!\u00a0 You’re off to transferring files.\u00a0 I hope it helps.\u00a0 Of course, all this is assuming you has the CIFS\/NetWare set up correctly in the first place…<\/p>\n
