It doesn't work with the NetBIOS name? From those traces you sent me it
looks like the target is simply not responding to a node status. I'm
not surprised if it's some of Microsofts newer servers but it should
respond to the correct NetBIOS name. I suspect what smbclient is doing
is using the *SMBSERVER name. I thought jCIFS did this consistently
but from looking at the code I have found a hole where it does not. I
believe this may be the case here. But if the NetBIOS name doesn't work
there is a more serious problem. Can you double check that and send me
a trace please? Make sure you are using the correct name of course.

As for the solution, I will be posting a followup message about name
service inadequacy. Chris, you wanted to go through this? Then put your
SMB URL hat on and get out those 'how' questions :~)
