I can connect to the internet just fine via ethernet and I'm on the same ethernet connection as the server Made a new admin account on my iMac and tried to connect from there Made a new account and added it to the server's file sharing and login through that (basically impossible since I can't get a login box, but I tried forcing it in the CMD+K entry as well Forget all 'favorite' server connections and enter them fresh Force credentials into the CMD+K server connection Delete all server related files from keychain (trying to force login box to come up but it still won't) Here's what I have tried: - Fresh install of Monterey I am not given an opportunity to enter my credentials.

The error message is: 'There was a problem connecting to the server 'IP address here.' URLs with the type 'smb:' are not supported.' If you find that you suddenly can't connect from a Mac to a Windows file-server (when you always could before), there's a real possibility that your Windows admin(s) have tightened security for their/your Active Directory domain - and rightly so !
