Windows 8.1 reached the end of Mainstream Support on [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/lifecycle/faq/windows#windows-81 January 9, 2018]; unless you purchase extended support, the only Microsoft-supported Windows version now is Windows 10. We strongly recommend you do not use versions of Windows unsupported by Microsoft.
Windows 8 was released in december 2012. Due to changes in the way that trust relationships are established with domain controllers, older versions of Samba (need at least 3.6.6) do not allow Windows 8 clients to log in once joined to a domain. see [[bugzilla:7172]]

== Slow login with win8 to sme8 domain ==
==Setting up network drives==
In order to have logon script working you must add the following Keys in registry
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\NetworkProvider\HardenedPaths]
"\\\\*\\netlogon"="RequireMutualAuthentication=0,RequireIntegrity=0,RequirePrivacy=0"
If you are using SME Server as a domain controller and the workstations have joined the domain
you can automate drive mapping and syncronise the PC time with the netlogon.bat file
Note: [[:SME_Server:Documentation:Administration_Manual:Chapter13#Workgroup |Chapter 13]] has a method for admin to edit the netlogon.bat file without using the command line. You can consider also the [[SME_Server:Documentation:Administration_Manual:Chapter7|chapter 7]] on Configuring the Computers on Your Network
nano -w /home/e-smith/files/samba/netlogon/netlogon.bat
REM To set the time when clients logon to the domain:
net time \\servername /set /yes
REM To map a home directory to drive h:
net use h: /home /persistent:no
net use j: \\servername\ibay1 /persistent:no
net use p: \\servername\ibay2 /persistent:no
if exist Z: net use Z: /del /yes
and reset file to dos format
unix2dos /home/e-smith/files/samba/netlogon/netlogon.bat
== Slow login with win8 to sme8 domain ==
With certain networks you may have an issue with a slow login to the SME Server domain due to a timeout issue on the network. In this case you should install a second patch (in first you have to install the win8samba.reg).
