Bug#443445: O: libtnlm0 -- NTLM authentication library



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the libntlm packages.

If you want to be the new maintainer please take them.

The package description of libntlm0 is:

NTLM is an authentication protocol used in various Microsoft network
protocol implementations and supported by the NTLM Security Support
Provider ("NTLMSSP"). Originally used for authentication and negotiation
of secure DCE/RPC, NTLM is also used throughout Microsoft's systems as
an integrated single sign-on mechanism.

NTLM employs a challenge-response mechanism for authentication, in  which
clients are able to prove their identities without sending a password to
the server. It consists of three messages, commonly referred to as Type 1
(negotiation), Type 2 (challenge) and Type 3 (authentication).
