[Samba] NTLMv2 in Sun's 'official' Samba 3.0.37?

[Jake Carroll]

Hi all.

Just looking for some guidance as to what works, and what doesn't.

Recently I've noticed that no matter what I do, I can't seem to get NTLMv2 to negotiate using Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Mac OS X 10.6.x against Solaris 10 Samba 3.0.37.

If I 'tune' the client OS that it only negotiates with NTLMv1, all is well. In my global block, on the Solaris Samba server, I have:

[global]
client lanman auth=no
client ntlmv2 auth=yes
ntlm auth = no

Now, I'd have thought that this would be enough to make NTLMv2 work along it's merry way - but apparently not. Whenever I attempt to connect and negotiate using NTLMv2, the client OS is given a generic 'incorrect username or password' response.

So - the question. Does 3.0.37 actually even support NTLMv2? Am I doing something wrong in trying to turn it 'on'? Sun aren't talking, but I'm sure somebody here would know the history behind this...

Thanks all.

JC

It didn't work for me on Sun with Samba 3.0.37 either. I was under
the impression (quite possibly wrong) that for Win 7 support you would
need Samba 3.3.x or 3.4.x anyway. I have been testing the
sunfreeware.com version of samba 3.4.x (full zfs support seems to be
missing) and compiling it from scratch (getting kerberos enabled is a
problem.) And hoping that a Sun-provided build of 3.4.x comes out
sometime in the next 6 months. 3.0.x line is hitting a dead end.
(Dell has made our life easier in 2009 by still shipping us machines
with XP.) I have an open ticket with Sun on separate issue with
3.0.37 so I am hoping this will let me find out what their plans are.

From everything I've read and experienced, version 3.3.4 was the earliest
Samba version that was demonstrated to be able to support Windows 7 (with
the proper registry entries).

Blessings,
David

Their plans are to push 3.4:
