Then if 127.0.0.1 or auth at 127.0.0.1 does not work you might try something
like:

   new SmbFile( "smb://auth@" +
         InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress() +
         "/$IPC/named_pipe" );

A program should be written to  model the concepts of the task it
performs rather than the physical world or a process because this
maximizes the  potential for it  to be applied  to tasks that are
conceptually similar and, more  important, to tasks that have not
yet been conceived.
