RE: Mapping Shared IFS folders to Mac

Yes, SMB2 is the default for 7.3, but many people disable it.

FWIW, I have the faintest recollection of getting errors trying to connect to the root of the NetServer (smb://net_server/) and it only working for a specific dir (smb://net_server/dir/). That probably dates back to 7.1 or even v5r4.

According to the IBM docs Justin, at 7.3 I'm running SMB2 by default. Not sure how to tell for sure but this doc http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1021710 <http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1021710> spends a lot of time telling you how to disable SMB2.

I haven't done Mac in many years, but i do Linux regularly. On Linux, it won't connect by default if the server is not running SMB2.
