I thought the following might be useful for people interested in the
changes in SMB2 as compared to SMB.
Fewer Commands
--------------

The number of top level commands has been greatly reduced, and is down
to 18 opcodes. Where SMB had a pile of different ways for doing
something, SMB2 has just one, which is a nice change. The commands
that we have found in SMB2 are

NEGPROT   0x00
SESSSETUP 0x01
unknown   0x02



mount?    0x0B

I saw this, directly after a DCERPC bind (which was done with write/read)
I assume this is a call the passes data, and gets data as a result, so
this seems to the missing call that make rpc calls faster without out the write/read overhead
