Hi

Is there a document that lists which SMB versions are supported by which OS?

I am trying to establish if W2K8 SMB 2.1 is supported by W2K22/19 (file servers)?

I came across this one but I can't make sense...

    Yes, Server 2019 and 2022 can step down to SMB v2, might check the signing options are in agreement.

    @Muhammad Binyameen + @Anonymous

    Thank you for your help with my question.

    Today I found this note that lists OS v SMB version.
