[opensuse-factory] Removing apache2-mod_auth_ntlm_winbind from Factory
Hi, the NTLM authentication method used by apache2-mod_auth_ntlm_winbind is technologically-wise obsoleted. The prefered alternative is apache2-mod_auth_kerb instead. Kerberos offers several advantages compared to NTLM. Therefore I suggest to remove apache2-mod_auth_ntlm_winbind from openSUSE Factory. The next step will be to purge it from the OBS Apache:Modules project too.
