DESCRIPTION
Authen::Smb allows you to authenticate a user against an NT domain. You can specify both a primary and a backup server to use for authentication. The NT names of the machines should be used for specifying servers.An authentication request will return one of four values:
NTV_NO_ERROR \fIs0(0) NTV_SERVER_ERROR \fIs0(1) NTV_PROTOCOL_ERROR \fIs0(2) NTV_LOGON_ERROR \fIs0(3)
NTV_NO_ERROR is the only return value possible for a successful authentication. All other return values indicate failure, of one sort or another.
