Re: lanmanager hash algorithm (ITS#899)

[Kurt@OpenLDAP.org]

The patch includes code based upon Samba 2.0.7.  Samba license
is such that we cannot accept code derived from Samba.  I
suggest you look for a public domain or non-restrictive
implementation of the borrowed code.  You could likely write
such code from scratch.
