default authentication needs to be at least ntlmv2 security for cifs mounts
We had planned to upgrade to ntlmv2 security a few releases ago, and have been warning users in dmesg on mount about the impending upgrade, but had to make a change (to use nltmssp with ntlmv2) due to testing issues with some non-Windows, non-Samba servers. The approach in this patch is simpler than earlier patches, and changes the default authentication mechanism to ntlmv2 password hashes (encapsulated in ntlmssp) from ntlm (ntlm is too weak for current use and ntlmv2 has been broadly supported for many, many years).
