[Samba] 4.10.2 not connecting to (old) NAS

[Phil Dermott]

Thank you Rowland - adding "ntlm auth = yes" in the global section and 
rebooting the machine has provided access once again to the NAS.

In answer to your questions - the smb.conf was from the PCLOS machine.  
Question - I had tried sec=ntlm in the mount statement without it being 
in the smb.conf - did that not work because ntlmv1 had not been enabled?

As to the question marks, that is something to do with the mail client 
(Thunderbird) - I do not see the question marks when composing the 
message to send but only see them when the message is distributed from 
the list server.
