Hello, From Debian 9 running Samba 4-5-16, I'd like to send a pop-up message to a Windows (7) host, but none of the following works: smbclient -M \\WIN-PC "test" smbclient -M //WIN-PC "test" smbclient -M ////WIN-PC "test" smbclient -M '\\WIN-PC' "test" Would someone have a working example? FWIW, the Windows host is running a Comodo firewall. Would I need to allow connection to a given TCP/UDP port? Thank you.

Would I need to >allow connection to a given TCP/UDP port?-M messaging is an SMB1-only thing I believe. Is the Windows7 box running an SMB1 server ?
