Tested and I cannot get it to work ;-( What I've found out by searching the web is a possible workaround that makes use of GVFS and Fuse (this is under GNOME). By using these two daemons one can run "gvfs-mount //server/share" and it will recreate the full structure of the network share under "~/.gvfs/ share at server" so "java -jar" pointing to this path does not complain and runs the file fine. This is something like doing "mount -t cifs ..." with the advantadge that this can be done by the user itself (no root password needed) so the virtual mount point can be mounted only when required -on the fly-, no need no edit "/etc/fstab" and define the static samba share on every boot.
