[jcifs] 411 - Length Required

[Chad Sturtz]

I downloaded and started using the JCIFS library yesterday to handle NTLM authentication to a remote windows host running WinRM.  I'm watching the network traffic in Wireshark and can see the original 401 response, followed by the client sending a second request with the NTLM authentication included.  The problem lies here.  The server responds with a 411 error (Length Required).  As I understand it, this means the request was sent without a Content-Length header.  I was able to verify this in the Wireshark trace.

Is there a reason the Content-Length is not being set?
