In a really security-sensitive environment, I wouldn't allow NT
domain authentication at all...  L0phtcrack will crack about 90% of
your NT passwords in about an hour, and will get 99% within a week or
so.  This can be done by stealing a copy of your SAM database, or by
sniffing passwords off the network.

With quite a bit of work, you can make this hard to do.  Unix systems
(usually) make this sort of thing much harder by default.

Actually, in a really security-sensitive environment, I wouldn't allow
Microsoft products on my network.  Their bug-o-the month software is
too flawed, by their own VP's admission.  But that's me...
