Re: Is the work-around also the answer?

Hello,

1) The system worked fine (or so I'm told) until June of this year.
2) The system then began rejecting some logins.
3) The pre-authentication work-around completely solves the problem
since then.  Completely.  I'm not inquiring to find out if it might -
I'm stating that it does in production.

From what I read, I believe including here, that couldn't happen if the
AD had switched to NTLMv2, as the entire authentication process wouldn't
work,  pre-authentication or not.

I can remove the pre-authentication stanzas from the xml, and the
software will not authenticate, and put them back and it will - all in
the space of 15 minutes.  I don't think by coincidence that the AD
people just happen to be switching between NTLMv1 & v2 at those same times.


Am I mis-reading to think I have read that jCIFS won't authenticate at
all with NTLMv2, regardless of whether I use the pre-authentication or not?

Thanks,
