Ken,

Just to be clear, are you saying Win10 won't connect to a Samba 3 server?
Or is Win10-connectivity only a problem when a Samba 3 server is providing AD services?

I've got MANY Linux boxes providing simple share of data files... If Win10 won't talk to them, that's huge for me.

Thanks for any clarification.

What will you lose?

The ability to interact with a SAMBA 3 Domain.

That's gonna cost me. Although, MS swore up and down that they wouldn't allow it in Windows 7 either, and then customers complained in batchloads, so they added some registry hacks, and it works...also in Win 8.x and related servers.

So maybe it will happen again.

I can just hear it now..."But! But! security... " and so forth.

There's security and security, and relative levels of threat, and different strengths and weaknesses in different domains. One size does not fit all. There are plenty of networks that don't need Hyper-Paranoid 22nd. Century Super Security 5.0 (tm). SAMBA 3 still works. Let ME decide what I need.

Still.. MS has caved before, and more than once. Maybe they will again.
