    default authentication needs to be at least ntlmv2 security for cifs mounts · 81bcd8b7
    Steve French authored
    We had planned to upgrade to ntlmv2 security a few releases ago,
    and have been warning users in dmesg on mount about the impending
    upgrade, but had to make a change (to use nltmssp with ntlmv2) due
    to testing issues with some non-Windows, non-Samba servers.
    
    The approach in this patch is simpler than earlier patches,
    and changes the default authentication mechanism to ntlmv2
    password hashes (encapsulated in ntlmssp) from ntlm (ntlm is
    too weak for current use and ntlmv2 has been broadly
    supported for many, many years).
