   This sounds like SMB v1.0 and SMB v2.0 has been disabled on the Windows   
   VMs so that SMB v3.0 is then the only "option" by default.   
      
   You need to turn SMB 1.0 and SMB 2.0 back on and you will get the usual   
   security warnings on the windows VMs.   
      
   Or you could upgrade Linux to support SMB 3.0 or it could just need   
   enabling?
