Likely this is part of the modern security restrictions enforced to make NTLMv2 moderately secure. I don't see a Samba issue here, we did the same at the time of the 'badlock' fixes, with a default of 'raw NTLMv2 auth = no'. Therefore I'm closing this as RESOLVED / INVALID to help tidy up the bugzilla. Sorry,
