+<description>
+ <para>This option controls whether the netlogon server (currently
+ only in 'active directory domain controller' mode), will
+ reject clients which does not support NETLOGON_NEG_STRONG_KEYS
+ nor NETLOGON_NEG_SUPPORTS_AES.</para>
+
+ <para>This option was added with Samba 4.2.0. It may lock out clients
+ which worked fine with Samba versions up to 4.1.x. as the effective default
+ was "yes" there, while it is "no" now.</para>
+
+ <para>If you have clients without RequireStrongKey = 1 in the registry,
+ you may need to set "allow nt4 crypto = yes", until you have fixed all clients.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>"allow nt4 crypto = yes" allows weak crypto to be negotiated, maybe via downgrade attacks.</para>
+
+ <para>This option yields precedence to the 'reject md5 clients' option.</para>
