6 <para>This parameter determines whether or not <citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbclient</refentrytitle>
7 <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> and other samba client
8 tools will attempt to authenticate itself to servers using the
9 weaker LANMAN password hash. If disabled, only server which support NT
10 password hashes (e.g. Windows NT/2000, Samba, etc... but not
11 Windows 95/98) will be able to be connected from the Samba client.</para>

13 <para>The LANMAN encrypted response is easily broken, due to its
14 case-insensitive nature, and the choice of algorithm. Clients
15 without Windows 95/98 servers are advised to disable
16 this option. </para>
17
18 <para>Disabling this option will also disable the <command
19 moreinfo="none">client plaintext auth</command> option.</para>

21 <para>Likewise, if the <command moreinfo="none">client ntlmv2
22 auth</command> parameter is enabled, then only NTLMv2 logins will be
23 attempted.</para>
