+ <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 it's
+ 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
