SMB1 has known vulnerabilities, so Windows has had the option to disable SMB 1 
entirely for a while and on the Linux side,  upstream SAMBA recently changed to 
disabling it by default. It is possible that various distros may already have 
disabled it in their default SAMBA configurations.

Subject: [Freedos-user] FreeDOS and Samba 


What am I doing wrong with FreeDOS and mounting a Samba file share?

I have a Virtualbox image I found at 
https://www.lazybrowndog.net/freedos/virtualbox/?page_id=33 which seems to 
have everything ready for networking.  I have Samba installed on the host 
Linux machine.  From the host I can mount the share, but not entirely on 
FreeDOS.  The best I can manage is read-only access if the "valid users" 
parameter (below) is removed.

I managed to get this to work a few years ago and recall that the solution 
has something to do with using SMB protocol 1.  None of the guides I find 
now for mounting a share from FreeDOS mention this and Samba now seems 
unwilling to admit it knows anything about SMB1.

Here's what I have for the share in /etc/smb.conf:

[Dave]
   comment = Dave's stuff
   path = /home/dave/foobar
   read only = no
   guest ok = yes
   browsable = yes
   writable = yes
   valid users = dave
