It is not possible to authenticate users of totally unrelated domains through the
same jCIFS Filter. This is such an unusual case that I do not believe it will ever
be supported.

You can however authenticate against any number of domains that have trust
relationships or the equivalent in an AD network. Any domain controller that has a
relationship with other domains can authenticate clients for those domains.
