[CIFS] NTLMv2 support part 5
NTLMv2 authentication (stronger authentication than default NTLM) which many servers support now works. There was a problem with the construction of the security blob in the older code. Currently requires /proc/fs/cifs/Experimental to be set to 2 and /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags to be set to 0x4004 (to require using NTLMv2 instead of default of NTLM) Next we will check signing to make sure optional NTLMv2 packet signing also works.
