Hi Svyatoslav,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

I will do as suggested, but I am curious - why this statement in the
help docs? Is it an oversimplication? Is it that NTLM is not used in
certains ways that it is in a mixed mode domain, but still used in
others? If so, where can I find out more (either Internet or books?)
