Thanks for the quick response as usual Mike.  I'll directly message you with a log of what happens, as well as the source code I use to reproduce the problem - it's a cut down version of what I have on live.

To complicate matters slightly I've had to set jcifs.smb.client.dfs.ttl=0, as with a TTL in place I get NullPointerException in SmbFile within the resolve method - domain is null, so domain = domain.toLowerCase() causes the NPE.  I narrowed it down to only occurring when the cache was enabled and only on the second request (the first request to a path succeeds, but a second request to the same path or a path below it fails), so the easiest fix was to just disable the caching.  I've only ever managed to reproduce this fault from our live Solaris servers though (it always works fine when running on Windows), and I'm unable to perform any packet capture from there.

For this specific fault (NT_STATUS_NOT_FOUND), would you be able to give me something that I could filter the packet capture on?  e.g. would all requests always go over a specific port?  Otherwise, the packet capture is going to be very large as I'm remotely connected to the machine that I test from.  There are a large number of domain controllers for our Active Directory, so a filter on all those would be impractical.

Cheers,

darren
