[jcifs] Named pipes timeout errors

[Simon Wilcox]

OK, thanks for the reply.  It turns out it was just getting the right
domain/username/password correct in the properties file that was causing
trouble.  Everything is running fine now!

Thanks,

Simon Wilcox

I don't recall ever receiving confirmation that the named pipes code works
with Win2K but MS is pretty good about maintaining backward compatibility
so I'd be pretty surprised if it didn't work. And we have not had any
reports to the contrary (yet). You are following the instructions in
the following document right?

  http://jcifs.samba.org/src/docs/pipes.html

In particular, for the CallNamedPipe example you're using the /P 0x6
flag with createnp.exe right? Also make sure networking is "on" on the
machine. I have heard that the CIFS server doesn't run unless theres a
cable in the jack. That may have just be laptops though.
