[Samba] mod_auth_ntlm_winbind + IE problem

[Laurent DOMENECH]

Replying to myself...

This problem was due to the fact that Apache's KeepAlive directive was set 
to Off and was preventing the browser to GET the 3rd NTLM request. Setting 
"KeepAlive On" and applying the proper security to 
/var/cache/samba/winbindd_privileged did the trick.

Hope this helps,
Laurent
