As a server, Samba 3.0 implements NTLMv2 by default.  Samba also passes
on NTLMv2 authentication attempts to the DC without modification, so it
can validate them.  

As a client, you need to specify 'client ntlmv2 auth = yes' to force
Samba to use NTLMv2, as it is incompatible with older servers.

It is not possible to 'modify' an NTLM authentication request into
NTLMv2, so if your clients are not configured correctly, they will not
correctly talk to an NTLMv2 enforcing server/domain.
