JCIFS does not support SMB signing. If your Win2003 servers require it,
jCIFS will not work. Of course there is no way for me to tell what is
happening. To be certain, I would need two packet captures; one of NT 4.0
operating on Win2003 successfully and one of jCIFS failing to do the same
or similar on the Win2003 server.
