I have searched around the whole night last night, but so far I seem to be the only one experiencing this problem. Hopefully you guys here will be able to point me into the right direction, so here it goes:
After happily running FreeNAS 11.2-U1 for some time already, I updated to 11.2-U2 last night. Unfortunately, after updating, my AXIS security cameras are no longer able to connect to the NAS. This worked perfectly well before the update.
AXIS security cameras use SMB to connect to the NAS and the release notes did mention the updated contained an SMB update as well. The symptoms differ between cameras: Older cameras can connect, report the connection to be read-only, but the test files they write to test the connection appear perfectly fine in the shared directory. Newer cameras reported not being able to write recordings to the share, but their test files too appeared perfectly fine. After manually disconnecting them, they can no longer be connected (manually). I don't think this is an important difference.
I was too busy with the cameras to test Sonos too, first-things first. But I did have all settings in place to cripple SMB security far enough for Sonos' likings. I noticed SMB1 being disabled, but enabling that did not help for my cameras. And AXIS cameras negotiate to use SMB 3.0 or 3.02 per default. Only a deeply hidden mount option allows using SMB 1.0, 2.0 and 2.1.
Does anybody else have this problem? Or does anybody know what's going wrong?
