The captures are fine.  The one doing normal Java IO shows two real
write requests, each of one byte, at offsets 0 and 1, as expected.  The
jcifs one shows the problem: the first write request is for one byte at
offset 0, but the second wants to write a byte at offset 942837984 (hex
0x383290e0). In between the two write requests is a QUERY_PATH_INFO,
which returns 5237805280 as the file length (hex 0x01383290e0); this
value is truncated to 32 bits and used as the offset in the following
write.  Looks like the NAS server isn't responding properly to the
QUERY_PATH_INFO, since there's also a completely bogus allocation size
reported.
