[jcifs] lmCompatibility and multiple hosts

Hi!
I'm using Jcifs in a free (and ad-free) file manager for Android.
So far it works great, except for some older Linux-based NAS
devices which require lmCompatibility=0, useExtendedSecurity=false.
The user has to check an option in the program to access the NAS:
"Older NAS compatibility (LMv1)".
The problem occurs when the user tries to access multiple servers
with different SMB versions:
1. First he connects to a Windows computer, with lmCompatibility=3,
useExtendedSecurity=true.
2. Then he tries to connect to the NAS with lmCompatibility=0,
useExtendedSecurity=false.
However, Jcifs seems to ignore these paramters after the initial
connection, so the connection to the NAS fails. The program must
be killed via a task manager and restarted to be able to connect
to the NAS.
So my question is: Is there any function to unload all cached
connections and/or reinitialize Jcifs without restarting the entire
program?
Thanks!
