[jcifs] Re: Allowing for login authentication to mulitple domains

Thanks Michael,

Would the code below (from FAQ) be resilant to DC failures (the issue you
originally pointed out)?

>>>

// To authenticate arbitrary credentials (not necessarily web clients) the
jcifs.smb.Session.logon() method can be used like:

UniAddress mydomaincontroller = UniAddress.getByName( "192.168.1.15" );
NtlmPasswordAuthentication mycreds = new NtlmPasswordAuthentication( "ntdom",
"user", "pass" );
try {
    SmbSession.logon( mydomaincontoller, mycreds );
    // SUCCESS
    return true;
} catch( SmbAuthException sae ) {
    // AUTHENTICATION FAILURE
    return false;
} catch( SmbException se ) {
    // NETWORK PROBLEMS?
    se.printStackTrace();
}
