With fresh installation of Windows 2012 and Windows 8, you can’t access old SMB share or CIFS share correct.

 The solution is following.

 · To enable SMBv1 on the SMB client, run the following commands:

  sc.exe config lanmanworkstation depend= bowser/mrxsmb10/mrxsmb20/nsi

  sc.exe config mrxsmb10 start= auto

 

· To enable SMBv2 and SMBv3 on the SMB client, run the following commands:

  sc.exe config lanmanworkstation depend= bowser/mrxsmb10/mrxsmb20/nsi

  sc.exe config mrxsmb20 start= auto

   

Run following Powershell command to disable new security negotiate on SMB 3 which some third party doesn’t support.  

Be aware once you disable this security negotiate, you need to disable all Windows 8 and Windows 2012 in your environment so they can talk to each other. 

Set-SmbClientConfiguration -RequireSecuritySignature $false

 Or 

Set-ItemProperty -Path “HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters” RequireSecureNegotiate -Value 0 -Force

 

Powershell command to enable win8/2012 to access EMC VNX cifs server:

Set-SmbClientConfiguration -RequireSecuritySignature $true

Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters" RequireSecureNegotiate -Value 0 -Force
