jcifs-1.3.17

The jcifs.smb.client.soTimeout property, which controls how long the
client will wait to read data from a server, was broken in the previous
release (1.3.16). Not only was it broken but no SO_TIMEOUT was specified
at all meaning if a server became unresponive, JCIFS could hang for
an uncontrollably long time. This behavior of this property has been
restored.

Additionally, a new jcifs.smb.client.connTimeout has been added which
specifies the number of milliseconds that the client will wait to
connect to a server (how long it will wait for a response to the TCP
SYN). This can be very useful when trying to communicate with many
servers in parallel.
