Re-enable smb1

Most modern OSes have disabled support to SMB1 by default due to known security issues.  It is all good if you don't have any legacy devices.  If you are like myself who still have one of these legacy device, you may need to re-enable the smb1 support.

To re-enable smb1 support, you need to edit your /etc/samba/smb.conf and add the line below to its [global] section.


client min protocol = NT1
