Hi I'm using Samba/Winbind(ntlm_auth) to handle NTLM requests from a Squid proxy. Everything works fine with local PDC mode and also in domain member mode.
There is only one thing which isn't very nice for end-users. If you try to surf over the authenticated proxy with a Windows client which is not member of the domain, the browser (problem only occurs with IE) will use hostname as domain name for NTLM authentication. So if you just enter username and password it will not work. You have to enter the whole domain\username (and of course password) combination. My question is, are there any methods to tell ntlm_auth or winbind to simply ignore domain, sent by client, and always use samba configured domain on the proxy host? (The "winbind use default domain" directive will only work if there is no domain given by the client) I'm using Samba 3.5.6 from FreeBSD ports on a fully updated FreeBSD 8.2.
