I am not the copyright holder, I only maintain the pypi package for
python-ntlm. I might have 10 lines of my own code in the whole package.
If running on Windows it would be great to have out of the box "native
windows NTLM" which can be done somehow with the win32 module, I
think...
It may also be possible to use Kerberos authentication (NTLMv2) instead
of NTLM in most cases these days; since after Windows 2000 according to
Wikipedia.
