Thanks for this Richard, why would it work on one machine and not
another? We are using the same JRE, we install this as part of
application install so we know it is exactly the same.

Line 127 of jcifs.smb.SmbConstants:

    static final String OEM_ENCODING = Config.getProperty(
"jcifs.encoding", "Cp850" );


i.e. if you don't define jcifs.encoding as something else it will
always default to cp850.
