There are at least two distinct failure cases that it may be important for
FreeTDS to distinguish between: a failure to negotiate NTLMSSP (be it a
network failure, a protocol incompatibility, or something else) has different
implications than if we negotiate NTLMSSP and the server rejects our
credentials. I think I would like to distinguish between the two cases, but
I'm not sure the best way to represent this in the config file.
