No, not as a client. Both NT4 and Win2K send a capability dword of 0xD4
(CAP_UNICODE | CAP_NT_SMBS | CAP_STATUS32 | CAP_LEVEL_II_OPLOCKS)...

... which I think is wrong as it should include CAP_LARGE_FILES...

... then again Microsoft probably thinks that's implied by CAP_NT_SMBS...

Looks like the negprot is the way to go, let's hope they don't vary it too much.
