Hi,

I was trying smbmount (SuSE's samba-client-3.0.20b-3.4). The mount command 
replied:
cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it.
9451: protocol negotiation failed
SMB connection failed

No I'd suggest to change the message at least: It's unclear who "we" is: The Samba 
Team, the client, or the server

The server is a "Windows 2003 server", possibly running some default 
configuration.

Regards,
Ulrich
