[jcifs] Only the first login is successful

[Andrew Miller]

I had a similar problem.  I don't have time right now for a more
thorough response, but you might want to see the thread from Nov 10th
called "Load balancing required for preauthentication?"

http://lists.samba.org/archive/jcifs/2005-November/005683.html

I don't think anything has changed in the source since that
discussion.  You might just try turning on load balancing if it's not
already.
