Not one I have come across before, but the word 'DIALECT' usually means 
SMBv1, 2 or 3, now, by default, smbclient uses SMBv3, so this could mean 
that you are sending 3.1.1 and the other end is expecting 3.0.2

Smbclient will use a smb.conf file if one exist and you can set the max 
protocol on the command line, see 'man smbclient'
