RE: Changing password minimum length, sign on display

So are you running with SMB 2 turned off?

When we upgraded from 7.1 to 7.3, we immediately saw QNTC authentication errors when connecting to servers running newer versions of Windows while older versions of Windows still worked fine. At 7.1, all the Windows servers authenticated fine. I personally suspect SMB2 was the root cause. Increasing QPWDLVL from 0 to 2 fixed the problem.

I now remember one of the reasons we moved from 2 to 3. We could not pass a security audit at level 2.

Arco said he had problems with 2 and mixed case passwords between Windows 2008R2 and going to 3 solved that. Same thread.

There's a little fogginess here:
