I have deduced that this must be NTLM.

OpenLDAP would appear to support this, since NTLM is in the current
Cyrus-SASL, and I can do this:

	guy@blink$ ldapwhoami -Y NTLM -d -v -U guy -w foobar    
	SASL/NTLM authentication started
	SASL username: guy
	SASL SSF: 0
	dn:cn=guy middleton,ou=people,dc=obstruction,dc=com


But, when I try to use Outlook, the server log says
"do_bind: v3 unknown authentication method (137)".

Is Outlook trying to use something other than NTLM here?
