LegacyMutualAuthentication

Determines whether mutual authentication is enabled.

Note  Mutual authentication is not supported and is not available by default with Windows NT 4.0. This named-value is only useful if the network administrator installs a security provider that supports mutual authentication.

Registry Entry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\OLE\LegacyMutualAuthentication= value

Remarks

The LegacyMutualAuthentication named-value is a REG_SZ that provides the default setting for use of mutual authentication for all applications that do not call CoInitializeSecurity. Values of  Y  or  y  indicate that mutual authentication is enabled. Any other value or the lack of this named-value implies that mutual authentication is disabled.
