<description>
    <para>This parameter has been deprecated since Samba 4.13 and
    support for NTLMv2, NTLM and LanMan authentication outside NTLMSSP
    will be removed in a future Samba release.</para>
    <para>That is, in the future, the current default of
    <command>client use spnego = yes</command>
    will be the enforced behaviour.</para>

    <para> This variable controls whether Samba clients will try
    to use Simple and Protected NEGOtiation (as specified by rfc2478) with
    supporting servers (including WindowsXP, Windows2000 and Samba
    3.0) to agree upon an authentication
    mechanism.  This enables Kerberos authentication in particular.</para>

    <para>When <smbconfoption name="client NTLMv2 auth"/> is also set to
    <constant>yes</constant> extended security (SPNEGO) is required
    in order to use NTLMv2 only within NTLMSSP. This behavior was
    introduced with the patches for CVE-2016-2111.</para>
