    Linux VM or HOST users -- SAMBA 4.11 errors --get arounds


    Hi folks

    those of you trying out Linux Virtual machines or using Linux HOSTS with Windows / other guests and using SAMBA 4.11 for sharing files / folders there's some problems --you need to stay on Version 4.10.x.

    Bug getarounds shown in my post here :

    Linux Samba settings to display Windows shares

    Hi folks

    Samba needs a different setting to display Windows or any of the SAMBA shares - especially if its version of Linux / NAS server needs / uses SMB1

    You still need to set the SMB1 option in Add features to windows of course.

    also in the samba config file ensure this line is in the global section


    [global]
    max protocol = NT1 <===+++++++++++++++++

    (Not client max protocol !!)

    what this actually does (apart from working !!! ) I have no idea but it fixed 4 Linux machines which suddenly stopped listing Samba shares under network. I saw the suggestion on some weird website - have no idea of the link though - must have been imbibing some of those nice malted fluids kari likes. !!!

    Works also with ubuntu guests as well as Hosts and Centos guests and hosts. haven't messed around with other Linux distros as I don't really use them.

    RAID 0 on linux kernels >5.3.3 (Hosts and VM's)

    Hi folks

    for those using RAID 0 especially on devices with unequal sizes you won't be able to access your array after kernel 5.3.3 (whether as host or in a VM)

    This applies whatever the Windows Host virtualisation you are using - whether VBOX / VMWare or HYPER-V. Also applies to Linux Hosts (and any VM's running on a Linux host too).

    you need to ensure you change the default : (This applies to all RAID 0 whether on boot device or not).

    Caution: Kernel 5.3.4 and RAID0 default_layout – Webentwicklung

    note also those who suggest switching to LVM -- it's a get around but if its speed you are after RAID 0 still is far faster.

    After changing as per the link and re-generating grub your RAID 0 should be working again on latest kernel.
