You have to be more specific than "it doesn't work".

Try the examples/ListFiles.java example like:

$ cat user1.prp
jcifs.smb.client.domain=FOO
jcifs.smb.client.username=user1
jcifs.smb.client.password=pass1
jcifs.util.loglevel=4
jcifs.netbios.hostname=JCIFS139
$ java -Djcifs.properties=user1.prp ListFiles smb://192.168.117.201/shar/temp/

Then post the full output (minus sensitive information).

The server running on AIX probably doesn't support NTLMv2, port 445,
DFS, etc so you have to turn all of that stuff off.

Do you know what the server is on AIX? Is it Samba or something else?

Also, I assume you have tried the same credentials with a Windows
client or smbclient and it works ok?
