Value Name: Smb2
Value Type: REG_DWORD
0 = disabled
1 = enabled
Reboot the server.
We finished up about an hour ago. So far so good.

We just changed our Windows Server 2003 out for Windows Server 2008 -
wish we hadn't. 2008 is slow for some reason that I haven't completely

You can force 2008 to use SMB 1.0 by changing a registry entry (which

value "SMB2" (without the quotation marks - but you know that
