  Many third-party sites are just horrifically wrong.  For one example, look up "PAP vs CHAP".  The content on most of those web sites is entirely wrong.

  It helps to blame the correct thing.  The correct description is "ntlm_auth is passing data to AD, and AD is returning NO".

  The clearer description helps you to understand the problem better.   If you start out with an incorrect description of the problem, then you generally end up looking in the wrong place for the solution.
