You can force it to do so, with vers=1.0 as an option in /etc/fstab, though you should probably switch your samba shares to a later protocol. It was SMB1.0 which wannacry exploited. If they're still on wheezy (samba 2.3) this is not possible, it cannot use protocol 2.0 or later. I'm preparing to upgrade a wheezy server, so I'm in the position of trying to get a very mixed network to still see samba 2.3 while being ready for jessie, then stretch servers with minimal mucking about.
