Fix default behaviour for empty domains and add domainauto option
With commit 2b149f119 many things have been fixed/introduced. However, the default behaviour for RawNTLMSSP authentication seems to be wrong in case the domain is not passed on the command line. The main points (see below) of the patch are: - It alignes behaviour with Windows clients - It fixes backward compatibility - It fixes UPN I compared this behavour with the one from a Windows 10 command line client. When no domains are specified on the command line, I traced the packets and observed that the client does send an empty domain to the server. In the linux kernel case, the empty domain is replaced by the primary domain communicated by the SMB server. This means that, if the credentials are valid against the local server but that server is part of a domain, then the kernel module will ask to authenticate against that domain and we will get LOGON failure. I compared the packet trace from the smbclient when no domain is passed and, in that case, a default domain from the client smb.conf is taken. Apparently, connection succeeds anyway, because when the domain passed is not valid (in my case WORKGROUP), then the local one is tried and authentication succeeds. I tried with any kind of invalid domain and the result was always a connection. So, trying to interpret what to do and picking a valid domain if none is passed, seems the wrong thing to do. To this end, a new option "domainauto" has been added in case the user wants a mechanism for guessing. Without this patch, backward compatibility also is broken. With kernel 3.10, the default auth mechanism was NTLM. One of our testing servers accepted NTLM and, because no domains are passed, authentication was local. Moving to RawNTLMSSP forced us to change our command line to add a fake domain to pass to prevent this mechanism to kick in. For the same reasons, UPN is broken because the domain is specified in the username. The SMB server will work out the domain from the UPN and authenticate against the right server. Without the patch, though, given the domain is empty, it gets replaced with another domain that could be the wrong one for the authentication.
