I'm still trying to figure this out, but, what puzzles me is what caused things to change. It was working perfectly. It could easily be some Windows update as well as some Samba update, I suppose. I've tried to google this issue, but most hits I'm getting are old and talk about an smbclient update being the culprit... If this were an update caused problem, one would presume that others would be having the issue...
