Set the "jcifs.netbios.hostname" property to the desired value; you can do
this in the web.xml for the filter:

<init-parameter>
    <parameter-name>jcifs.netbios.hostname</parameter-name>
    <parameter-value>MYHOSTNAME</parameter-value>
</init-parameter>

You would then add "MYHOSTNAME" as a permitted computer.
