I think I've answered my own question! If I change my config to...

--enable-auth="ntlm,basic" \
--enable-ntlm-auth-helpers="SMB,fakeauth" \
--enable-basic-auth-helpers="MSNT"

it builds and seems to work.

Does anyone know if I'll be losing any functionality by using SMB rather
than NTLMSSP? Is it just the same helper renamed?

Thanks,

Graeme.
