There is virtually no use for it anymore. The “mount_smbfs” utility in FreeBSD only uses that protocol, which results in making it useless with newer versions of Microsoft’s operating systems, as well as other OS’s that have depreciated the use of SMBv1. I would like to suggest that FreeBSD do one of the following: 1) Remove “mount_smbfs” from FreeBSD. This would probably be in versions 12.1 or 13. It is perhaps too late to get into FreeBSD 12. 2) Update “mount_smbfs” so that it is compatible with versions SMBv3 and greater. While "SMBv2" is not dead, it is definitely comatose. This would be a better idea if someone had the time to do it. Thank you for taking the time to read this suggestion. -- Gerard E. Seibert
