[jcifs] CIFS over TCP/IP

[Christopher R. Hertel]

The only real difference (at the session level) is that naked transport 
doesn't have the NBT Session Request exchange.  Other than that, it's 
identical.

If you send the Session Request, you'll either get a timeout or an error 
message back (I've tested it, and the info's in the book).
