Two things are a little awkward.

1) Authentication failure generates an "IllegalStateException: Already
connected". I haven't traced this down but would it be possible to throw a
regular exception (e.g. IOException) with the SmbAuthException text? That
would be much more infomative.

$ java -Djcifs.properties=../miallen.prp HttpURL
http://myserver:8080/jcifs/TestServlet
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: Already connected
        at java.net.URLConnection.setRequestProperty(URLConnection.java:913)
        at
sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.setRequestProperty(HttpURLConnection.java:1501)
        at
jcifs.http.NtlmHttpURLConnection.doHandshake(NtlmHttpURLConnection.java:444)
        at
jcifs.http.NtlmHttpURLConnection.handshake(NtlmHttpURLConnection.java:103)
        at
jcifs.http.NtlmHttpURLConnection.getInputStream(NtlmHttpURLConnection.java:240)
        at java.net.URL.openStream(URL.java:913)
        at HttpURL.main(HttpURL.java:14)

2) When specifying credentials in the HTTP URL the domain separator is '\'
or '/' which are both illegal characters in the authority component. I
think it was determined at one time that the only valid separator
character in the authority component that is not already reserved is ';'.
That's what the SMB URL uses.

Finally, how do I do a POST request? The following code does not work. It
doesn't even send an HTTP request at all.

import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

public class HttpPut {

    public static void main( String[] args ) throws Exception {
        jcifs.Config.registerSmbURLHandler();
        URL url = new URL(args[0]);
        HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
        con.setDoOutput(true);
        con.setRequestMethod("PUT");
        con.connect();
        PrintStream out = new PrintStream( con.getOutputStream() );
        out.println( "This is some POST data" );
        out.flush();
Thread.sleep( 10000 );
    }
}
