[jcifs] jcifs.smb.SmbAuthException: Logon failure (only with Samba shares)

[Chase Simms]

I am able to connect to Windows file shares with JCIFS, but cannot
connect to any of our linux/unix hosts.  I am able to browse the Samba
shares from a windows PC and mount from linux hosts.  I've used the URI
with and without the username/password.  I'm running the JCIFS tests
from my PC which is able to browse any of Samba shares.  

Here's a snippet of test code:
    SmbFile from = new
SmbFile("smb://user:password@lnxtest1/Test_Customer/lowres/NewTextDocument.txt");
    SmbFile to = new
SmbFile("smb://user:password@prod2/PROD2V1/AutoTesting/NewTextDocument.txt"
);
    from.copyTo( to );

jcifs.prp:
jcifs.smb.client.domain = pubpress.com
jcifs.smb.client.username = username
jcifs.smb.client.password = password
jcifs.resolveOrder = WINS,DNS
jcifs.netbios.wins = 172.10.10.10,172.1.10.10
jcifs.smb.client.signingPreferred = true

error:
jcifs.smb.SmbAuthException: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad
password.
	at jcifs.smb.SmbSession.sessionSetup(SmbSession.java:289)
	at jcifs.smb.SmbSession.send(SmbSession.java:233)

	at com.pubpress.utils.FileCopy.main(FileCopy.java:17)

parts of smb.conf I thought were relevant:
# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name
   workgroup = PRESS

password server = DomainController5

[Test_Customer]
   comment = Test_Customer
   path = /home/Test_Customer
   public = yes
   writable = no
   printable = no

security = server (on the linux host)    security = share (on the HP-UX
host)


I have several Samba error logs with names like jcifs20_157_**.log. 
They all have the same errors.
 
more jcifs20_157_bc.log

[2008/05/07 12:22:04, 0] lib/util_sock.c:read_data(436)

Thank you for any help.  Please let me know if there is any information
I can add.
