The shared folder thing is not the standard config in which case
you should post all properties and values used. Try the "Production
web.xml example" listed on the NTLM HTTP auth page and see how that
works. If it does not work then you know theres something wrong with
the logonShare setup (ie. try listing the shares on the target server
with the examples/ListFiles.java example).
