-1073741715 in hex == 0xc000006d == NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE

Lookup status codes here: http://jcifs.samba.org/ntstatus.txt

Logon failure isn't entirely abnormal depending on the client and user. I
think new versions of the filter emit more information with:

    <init-param>
        <param-name>jcifs.util.loglevel</param-name>
        <param-value>2</param-value>
    </init-param>

You'll get the status message or the code in hex and I think the address
of the offender.
