[Samba] Synology shares not accessible...

[Ingo Asche]

Mostly you have second what I thought already. At least what they say 
about using an old Samba version.

Another thought just accured to me: But why they changed it after three 
years the change is already in use. Why now? But as you said, that's 
something only Synology can answer.
