[jcifs] NullPointerException in SmbSession.getChallengeForDomain

[Bedford, Joel]

Hi all,

 

Managed to get a NullPointerException in SmbSession.getChallengeForDomain. 

 

This seems to occur when, for what ever reason a domain controller can't be
located and this same method throws UnknownHostException. When the next
request comes thru to this same method the line 

 

if (dc_list_expiration < now) { 

 

Prevents the domain controller being looked up, we then end up at 

 

int max = Math.min( dc_list.length, LOOKUP_RESP_LIMIT ); 

 

This line then throws a NullPointException because dc_list is null.

 

Regards,

 

Joel
