<description>
<para>This parameter has been deprecated since Samba 4.13 and
support for LanMan (as distinct from NTLM, NTLMv2 or
Kerberos) authentication as a client
will be removed in a future Samba release.</para>
<para>That is, in the future, the current default of
<command>client NTLMv2 auth = yes</command>
will be the enforced behaviour.</para>
<para>This parameter determines whether or not <citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbclient</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> and other samba client
tools will attempt to authenticate itself to servers using the
weaker LANMAN password hash. If disabled, only server which support NT
password hashes (e.g. Windows NT/2000, Samba, etc... but not
Windows 95/98) will be able to be connected from the Samba client.</para>
<para>The LANMAN encrypted response is easily broken, due to its
case-insensitive nature, and the choice of algorithm. Clients
without Windows 95/98 servers are advised to disable
this option. </para>
<para>Disabling this option will also disable the <command
moreinfo="none">client plaintext auth</command> option.</para>
<para>Likewise, if the <command moreinfo="none">client ntlmv2
auth</command> parameter is enabled, then only NTLMv2 logins will be
attempted.</para>
