[jcifs] jcifs 1.2.6 and HTTP 1.0 keep-alive connection

[Sanglard Fabien]

Hello guys,

I was working with jcifs 1.2.6/Tomcat 4.1.3 and i
noticed that jcifs no longer
supported Keep-alive Connection for HTTP 1.0. ( This
feature is required by google Appliance servers).

I took a look to the following post:

http://lists.samba.org/archive/jcifs/2004-November/004334.html

...in which Johan suggested to set the content length
to 0 during the NTLM authentication process.

Just to make sure, i opened the class
"jcifs.http.NtlmSsp" and noticed that modification
requiered to make it works
was not present.

So, I modified the following:

if (msg != null && msg.startsWith("NTLM ")) {
	...
to

if (msg != null && msg.startsWith("NTLM ")) {
	resp.setContentLength(0);
	...

and it is now working perfectly.

I guess someone removed that during an update or it
was bugging other servlet implementation.

Regards,

Fabien Sanglard
