[jcifs] JCIFS with Windows Vista / IE 7

[shibaram]

For the meanwhile to test my application I set up the properties in the
web.xml itself and managed to run the application for once or twice.
But now I am facing a new error as below:

jcifs.smb.SmbException: NTLMv2 requires extended security
(jcifs.smb.client.useExtendedSecurity must be true if
jcifs.smb.lmCompatibility >= 3)
	at
jcifs.smb.NtlmPasswordAuthentication.getSigningKey(NtlmPasswordAuthentication.java:473)
	at jcifs.smb.SmbSession.sessionSetup(SmbSession.java:295)
	at jcifs.smb.SmbSession.send(SmbSession.java:234)
	at jcifs.smb.SmbTree.treeConnect(SmbTree.java:161)
	at jcifs.smb.SmbSession.logon(SmbSession.java:170)
	at jcifs.smb.SmbSession.logon(SmbSession.java:163)
	at jcifs.http.NtlmHttpFilter.negotiate(NtlmHttpFilter.java:189)
	at jcifs.http.NtlmHttpFilter.doFilter(NtlmHttpFilter.java:121)
	at
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:235)


As the message shows "jcifs.smb.lmCompatibility >= 3"
So I set up in the web.xml filter init-param to set
jcifs.smb.lmCompatibility to 3.
Still its not working.

I am using Windows Vista with IE 7 browser.
In mozilla no doubt I am getting the login modal window and although I pass
correct windows login and password, authentication fails repeatedly.

What could be the possible solution above?

Thanks
Shibaram
