[vlc-devel] [PATCH] smb: try libdsm first

[Thomas Guillem]

It escalated quickly because I used the wrong word, I'm verry sorry for that. Just for you know, vlabs would never push such a bad hack if it was only for a custumer.

I asked advices from Simon, my boss, because he knows a lot more about security than me and I needed different point of views since this patch is quite dangerous. 

Now, I'll work on implementing the proper solution, that is asking the user to force smb1.
