Maybe windows server 2012 enforced some security feature, but without any clue or tip for us to trace, when we suddenly find cannot access other machine's share folder, which causes a lot side effects like fail over clustering configuration or join domain.
1) We need to check whether "Client for Microsoft Networks" is installed or not.
if not, pls install.
2) Check one registry value, it is set as 0 or not.
Key: “HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters”
Value Name: RequireSecureNegotiate
Value Type: DWORD
Value Data: 0
If without this key value, you can directly create and set as 0.
