of course i did (guest is undesirable).
as i said, its working with security=user, and every other cifs-system
implementation that i know (smbclient, explorer) is abled to access
this samba server with both security-levels (user/share).

[security=share]
smbclient and "exlorer" both need to send the correct password
for a login.
but jCIFS dont send the password if share-level-security is
detected, right?

if so, why is it required by "explorer" and smbclient ?

i read some papers, but specialy the part share-level-security
i have never completely understood, because the chapters
"a client should ..." and "many clients do ..."
discribe the opposite.

i have no idea anymore how to test this misconduct
(system-security, samba, jCIFS, java, logic, ...)

---the code---
UniAddress mydomaincontroller = UniAddress.getByName( "192.168.90.90" );
NtlmPasswordAuthentication mycreds = new NtlmPasswordAuthentication( null, "joker", "Password" );
try {
SmbSession.logon( mydomaincontoller, mycreds );
// SUCCESS
return true;
} catch( Exception e ) {
// FAILURE
e.printStackTrace();
}
