Re: Load balancing required for preauthentication?

I misread SmbSession.interrogate, thinking it took a UniAddress.  The
first thing it does is get a UniAddress from the NbtAddress, so it my
mod still seems to work.

While I was building a new .jar for myself, I removed the System.out
calls from jcifs.util.transport.Transport.
