    Disabled Windows SMB1- no linux access to Windows shares

    Disabled SMB1on Win7, Win8 & Win10. Now Kubuntu cannot discover any of my 3 Windows PCs (1xWin7, 1xWin8, 1xWin10)
    KUBUNTU 17.04 can successfully ping all the Windows PCs and 'max protocol = SMB2' is in the GLOBAL SECTION of smb.conf
    My problem:
    SMB4K correctly identifies the WORKGROUP but does not find any Windows machines;
    Dolphin: smb://account@winPC almost immediately times out; no shares displayed.
    smbclient -L winPC gives 'protocol negotiation failed: NT STATUS CONNECTION RESET';
    smbclient -L winPC -m SMB2 prompts for password, which then fails.

    These results are identical for Windows7, 8 and 10 after disabling SMB1: previously, all Windows - Linux networking was faultless.
    All the Windows machines can see my Linux shares and their access is unchanged.
    SMB1 was disabled, on Microsoft's advice, to inhibit any possible ransomware spread between my Windows machines.

    Anyone?
