[06:58] <softrocker> I upgraded my xubuntu desktop to 20.04 from 18.04 and after doing so, my laptop running Windows XP could no longer access samba shares. A second laptop running Windows 10 can w/o problem (both before and after the upgrade). Any ideas how my XP machine can regain access?
[07:00] <pmjdebruijn> softrocker: you can probably degrade the SMB protocol in smb.conf
[07:01] <pmjdebruijn> at the expense of security and performance of course
[07:01] <pmjdebruijn> so it's obviously not recommended to do so
[07:01] <diogenes_> softrocker, you can also duplicate your question in #samba.
[07:03] <softrocker> yeah, i figured this may be better answered in #samba... as I've been messing with /etc/samba/smb.conf to no avail. thanx!
[07:07] <pmjdebruijn> softrocker: your focus should probably be on smb protocol levels and accepted auth methods
