Proposed patch; includes changes to client lanman auth and client
plaintext auth as well, which protects users from being tricked into
sending plaintext passwords to a rogue server, but at the cost of
breaking compatibility with other Samba servers that have encrypted
passwords = no set.

Investigation shows that these three changes have already been made
upstream for 3.2, which further reinforces my belief that we shouldn't
worry about debconf handling of this.
