This update provides new samba packages which were compiled with the --with-winbind-auth-challenge option. This option enables NTLM challenge-response authentication in winbind and is used, for example, in conjunction with the squid proxy server[2] to avoid the use of clear text proxy passwords between the client browser and the proxy server.

DESCRIPTION Samba[1] provides SMB/CIFS services (such as file and printer sharing) used by clients compatible with Microsoft Windows(TM). This update provides new samba packages which were compiled with the --with-winbind-auth-challenge option.
