Big  thanks to Marc Hoffmann for his SMB protocol Handler support patch. We
think  that  will  curb  the  "unknown  protocol:  smb" installation issues
regarding   certain   application   servers.  To  use  SMB  URLs  with  the
java.net.URL class it is now necessary to call the following:

   jcifs.Config.registerSmbURLHandler();
   u = new URL( "smb://...

before  creating  any  SMB URLs (whereas previously this was Class.forName(
"jcifs.smb.Config" )  which  is  no longer necessary). In addition to other
minor  changes,  URL  escape  sequences  like '%40' for '@' are now decoded 
properly, and a fix specific to Weblogic 6.1 has been applied.

Don't operate jCIFS under the influence of hard liquor. Happy New Year.
