Good day once again Mr. French! I have verified that our [MS-SMB] working document has already incorporated the necessary deletion of the DialectCount field (2.2.4). The changes will be available in a future document refresh; notifications concerning protocol documentation updates to the Open Specifications are announced via our Protocols Perspective e-Newsletter.
I also checked Network Monitor 3.3 smb2.npl, which has the 'struct SMB2ResponseNegotiate.DialectCount' field defined, and have filed a bug against that. Please read on for further information about this! Thank you very much for bringing this to our attention. Please let me know if this answers your question satisfactorily; if so, I will consider your question resolved.

I have created case SRX090428600004 for your question, and will begin my investigation shortly. I will keep you advised of progress!

Section 2.2.4 of MS-SMB2.pdf shows the SMB2 negotiate response as an SMB2 header followed by le16 StructureSize; /* Must be 65 */ le16 DialectCount; le16 SecurityMode; le16 DialectRevision; /* Should be 0x0202 */ ... etc when it actually has no "DialectCount" which is clear when decoding by hand (or looking at it in Wireshark) le16 StructureSize; /* Must be 65 */ le16 SecurityMode; le16 DialectRevision; /* Should be 0x0202 */ ... etc The server in this case is Vista. The dialect negotiated was 0x0202 in response to an SMB2 only (not SMB) negotiate protocol request. -- Thanks, Steve _______________________________________________ cifs-protocol mailing list cifs-protocol@cifs.org https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/cifs-protocol
