  Hello,

  I'm trying to connect to SQL server 2012/2008 using SQL Server ODBC linux driver(version 11.0.2270.0). When i connect using Windows credentials, a kerberos based server connection is attempted. If the connection fails, authentication mechanism does _not_ fall back to NTLM unlike other clients. The following technet article explains this behavior in detail.

  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh568450.aspx

  Is it possible to enforce NTLM authentication based connection ? The reason i'm asking this is because the machine may or may not be Kerberos "ready" and hence forcing NTLM authentication would help.

  Thanks,

  Vipul
