Hi,

For MAC integration in a Windows 2003 domain we would like to change
the Default Domain Controllers Policy setting "Microsoft Network
Server: Digitally sign Communication (if client agrees" to disabled
I wonder what the real danger is setting it to disabled. I've read a
lot articles about SMB signing, but couldn't find any real example of
potential dangers and risks

Thanks !

I had to disable it in our network only because one of the workstations is
still running Win95 and couldn't log on to domain without disabling SMB
signing ,I can see no reall security threart exists ,you can also check this
