Windows Desktop Imaging/Refresh & DOS & LanManager compatiblility & Risk

[James H Moore <jhmfa () RIT EDU>]

I naively asked when we could get rid of LANManager compatibility.  What
finally surfaced was that Altiris(tm) and Symantec Ghost(tm) both were DOS
based, and the only password protection that can be achieved was through
LANManager.

How are people handling this?
