Hi all,
in my laboratory network I wanted to test the different level of
authentications by selecting the proper option in the GPO setting in the
"Network security: LAN Manager authentication level" (under computer --->
windows settings --->
-- > security settings --> local policies ---> security options) but after
reading the explanation I 'm still a little bit puzzled about the correct
interpretion of the terminology (by the way I am not english-mother )

In short, all the descriptions I've found mention CLIENT and DOMAIN
CONTROLLERS, so my question is:

1) Does this setting comprise ONLY those newtork connections with
non-kerberos authentication between clients (stand-alone or member) and DC's?

2) and if so, how can connections between workstations and non-DC's be
affected?

Thanking in advance for your reply and I 'll be at your disposal for any
clarification on the about issue.

All policies with Network client and network server prefix are about SMB
protocol security. All policies with Domain memeber and Domain
controller prefix are about LDAP protocol security.
