[jcifs] Jcifs 1.3.8_tb and Windows 2008R2

[Thomas Bley]

Hello,

you can merge the sources from 1.3.8_tb and 1.3.16 manually. But doing
the tests and setting up the machines with the latest patches takes a
lot of time. The sources are included in
http://sourceforge.net/projects/simplgroup/files/simplegroupware/0.724/SimpleGroupware_0.724.tar.gz
(src/tools/java_bridge/jcifs-1.3.8_tb_src.tgz)

bye
Thomas
