[jcifs] jCIFS authentication stuff

[eglass1 at attbi.com]

Mike/All,

Attached is a jCIFS-based authentication framework I have been working on.  
This decouples the NTLMSSP stuff from the HTTP (since NTLM is also used in 
other MS implementations, such as POP/IMAP authentication to Exchange).  It 
also contains a SPNEGO implementation, which is a good chunk of what is needed 
for Kerberos authentication, as well as the JAAS login module which I posted a 
while back.

Unfortunately, time constraints will be preventing me from doing much more with 
this in the near future.  I was going to try and get the Kerberos 
authentication stuff going for Davenport, but that would also require 
substantial modifications to the jCIFS core, so I more or less gave up.  
Hopefully someone will find at least some of this useful.  

Rough notes are in "notes.txt"; an example of the NTLMSSP usage is 
in "test.java".  You will need to make the following changes to jCIFS if you 
want to compile this:

1. In jcifs.smb.NtlmPasswordAuthentication, make the getNTLMResponse and 
getPreNTLMResponse methods public.

2. Make the jcifs.http.NtlmHttpServletRequest class public, as well as the 
constructor.
