To turn off NTLMv2 the official method is:

  jcifs.smb.lmCompatibility=0
  jcifs.smb.client.useExtendedSecurity=false

I think that should make 1.3 behave like older versions wrt the code
in question but I'm not sure because I have not tried the JCIFS NTLM
HTTP authentication code in almost 10 years. And I'm even less sure
about 1.2.
