Is there a PHP library or framework that simplifies the implementation of NTLM authentication?

NTLM authentication is a challenge-response authentication protocol used by Windows operating systems. Implementing NTLM authentication in PHP can be complex due to the protocol's intricacies. One way to simplify this implementation is by using a PHP library or framework specifically designed for NTLM authentication, such as "php-ntlm" or "NTLMClient".

// Example code using php-ntlm library for NTLM authentication

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

use adLDAP\adLDAP;

$adldap = new adLDAP();

if ($adldap->authenticate('username', 'password')) {
    echo 'Authentication successful';
} else {
    echo 'Authentication failed';
}
