users using NT/LM authentication. It returns 0 if the users is authenticated
successfully and 1 if access was denied. ntlm_auth uses winbind to access
the user and authentication data for a domain. This utility
is only indended to be used by other programs (currently
<a class="ulink" href="http://www.squid-cache.org/" target="_top">Squid</a>
and <a class="ulink" href="http://download.samba.org/ftp/unpacked/lorikeet/trunk/mod_ntlm_winbind/" target="_top">mod_ntlm_winbind</a>)

The <a class="citerefentry" href="winbindd.8.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">winbindd</span>(8)</span></a> daemon must be operational
for many of these commands to function.</p><p>Some of these commands also require access to the directory
<code class="filename">winbindd_privileged</code> in
<code class="filename">$LOCKDIR</code>. This should be done either by running
this command as root or providing group access
to the <code class="filename">winbindd_privileged</code> directory. For
security reasons, this directory should not be world-accessable. </p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2507252"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2><div class="variablelist"><dl><dt><span class="term">--helper-protocol=PROTO</span></dt><dd><p>
Operate as a stdio-based helper. Valid helper protocols are:
</p><div class="variablelist"><dl><dt><span class="term">squid-2.4-basic</span></dt><dd><p>
Server-side helper for use with Squid 2.4's basic (plaintext)
authentication. </p></dd><dt><span class="term">squid-2.5-basic</span></dt><dd><p>
Server-side helper for use with Squid 2.5's basic (plaintext)
authentication. </p></dd><dt><span class="term">squid-2.5-ntlmssp</span></dt><dd><p>
Server-side helper for use with Squid 2.5's NTLMSSP
authentication. </p><p>Requires access to the directory
<code class="filename">winbindd_privileged</code> in
<code class="filename">$LOCKDIR</code>. The protocol used is
described here: <a class="ulink" href="http://devel.squid-cache.org/ntlm/squid_helper_protocol.html" target="_top">http://devel.squid-cache.org/ntlm/squid_helper_protocol.html</a>.
This protocol has been extended to allow the
NTLMSSP Negotiate packet to be included as an argument
to the <code class="literal">YR</code> command. (Thus avoiding
loss of information in the protocol exchange).
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">ntlmssp-client-1</span></dt><dd><p>
Client-side helper for use with arbitrary external
programs that may wish to use Samba's NTLMSSP
authentication knowledge. </p><p>This helper is a client, and as such may be run by any
user. The protocol used is
effectively the reverse of the previous protocol. A
<code class="literal">YR</code> command (without any arguments)
starts the authentication exchange.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">gss-spnego</span></dt><dd><p>
Server-side helper that implements GSS-SPNEGO. This
uses a protocol that is almost the same as
<code class="literal">squid-2.5-ntlmssp</code>, but has some
subtle differences that are undocumented outside the
source at this stage.
</p><p>Requires access to the directory
<code class="filename">winbindd_privileged</code> in
<code class="filename">$LOCKDIR</code>.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">gss-spnego-client</span></dt><dd><p>
Client-side helper that implements GSS-SPNEGO. This
also uses a protocol similar to the above helpers, but
is currently undocumented.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">ntlm-server-1</span></dt><dd><p>
Server-side helper protocol, intended for use by a
RADIUS server or the 'winbind' plugin for pppd, for
the provision of MSCHAP and MSCHAPv2 authentication.
</p><p>This protocol consists of lines in the form:
<code class="literal">Parameter: value</code> and <code class="literal">Parameter::
Base64-encode value</code>. The presence of a single
period <code class="literal">.</code> indicates that one side has
finished supplying data to the other. (Which in turn
could cause the helper to authenticate the
user). </p><p>Curently implemented parameters from the
external program to the helper are:</p><div class="variablelist"><div class="warning" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Warning</h3>Implementors should take care to base64 encode
any data (such as usernames/passwords) that may contain malicous user data, such as
a newline. They may also need to decode strings from
the helper, which likewise may have been base64 encoded.</div><dl><dt><span class="term">Username</span></dt><dd><p>The username, expected to be in
