yes, but I think that client should say: I support all these and server
reply, you can use such... If we support all versions we should be
always able to negotiate the correct (most secure) authentication.
I think that is NTLM2 is negotiated either NTLMv2 or NTLM2 should be
used. At this point I think that if we have valid Target Info NTLMv2
should be negotiated...
