SMB File Shares are hanging

[Nickolaitc]

Hello,

I am attempting some Chef Kitchen testing with kitchen-vagrant and hyperv and encountering issues with the SMB share.

My kitchen file:

---
driver:
  name: vagrant
  provider: hyperv
  cache_directory: false
  network:
  - ["public_network", bridge: "Default Switch"]
  customize: 
     memory: 5000
     cpus: 2
     
provisioner:
  name: chef_zero
  always_update_cookbooks: true

verifier:
  name: inspec

transport:
  name: winrm
  elevated: true

platforms:
  - name: Windows
    driver:
      box: mwrock/Windows2012R2
    

suites:
  - name: testing
    driver:
      synced_folders:
        - ["C:\\MyCoolStuff\\Chef\\ChefEntPack\\certificates", "C:\\certificates"]
        - ["C:\\MyCoolStuff\\Chef\\ChefEntPack\\installers", "C:\\setups"]
        - ["C:\\MyCoolStuff\\Chef\\ChefEntPack\\license", "C:\\license"]

The output I am getting every time:

Vagrant requires administrator access for pruning SMB shares and
may request access to complete removal of stale shares.

    default: You will be asked for the username and password to use for the SMB

is a problem for you, ctrl-C to exit and fix your stdin.

STDERR: The following WinRM command responded with a non-zero exit status.
Vagrant assumes that this means the command failed!

cmdkey /add:MYIPADDRESS /user: /pass:""

I attempted to incorporate smb_user smb_password - https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/synced-folders/smb.html but thinking this won't do any good.

I also disabled UAC on the host system, but this doesn't change anything.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated as I am stuck!

Seems worth looking into adding support to the driver for smb_user/password , which may just need to be passed through to underlying vagrant
