how does that change the fact that nobody *for years* even as XP was 
supported should enable ntlm on the server instead enable ntlm2 on the 
client and that don't magically change by using a for years unsupported 
operating system nobody should touch in 2017 any longer

[harry at srv-rhsoft:/fileserver/filesharing]$ cat samba_ntlm2.reg
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa]
"lmcompatibilitylevel"=dword:00000005
