Yup... more or less. I don't know the internals of NTLM(or whatever 7 is using). But yes, the username and a hash of the password travels over the network to the samba server, not openldap. You can add kerberos to the mix if you're concerned about security. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
