[jcifs] Re: Can't authenticate with newer samba

[Need Coffee]

Apologies for spamming the list.  For some reason although I am subscribed 
to it, and my options say I should receive my own posts, I never did.  I just 
checked the archives and saw my posts... sorry.

Did anyone have an issue upgrading from samba 2.2.x to samba 3 when
using davenport or jcifs?

This is with encrypt passwords = no in samba, btw...

>From watching packets it looks like jcifs is using the lowest smb protocol
dialect (0) even though I've specified higher.  And even setting "min protocol"
in smb.conf hasn't helped.  Any ideas welcome... thanks in advance.
