Hi, I am trying to figure out what features in terms of protocols (SMB/CIFS, SMB2, SMB2.1, SMB3) a client uses when being connected to a Samba server (v4.1.17). Is there any tool like smbstatus that shows which protocol version (and possibly which features) a client is using in a connection? (Feature in the sense of 'using encryption' for example). Thanks, Adi

However, we had this question twice in the past and someone had a funny, but working way: https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2014-November/186943.html Regards, Marc
