Rick, you have to modify the a security setting on the Windows 2003 server.

Open Domain Controller Security Settings – Local Policies – Security Options.

Look for Network Server: Digitally sign communications (always) and disable it.

Then run a gpupdate command and you should now be able to access the Windows 2003 server from the Mac.

Great podcast! I am currently dealing with a similar situation with a doctors office. They have a mix of OS X and Win XP Pro clients networked with a Windows 2003 server (No os X server). I had no problem binding the OS X clients with the 2003 server, however I’m still not able to get the OS X clients to open shared files on the 2003 server. Please send me the info that you were talking about in your podcast.

Any problems with the OS X file forks breaking when saving to a Windows server?

Thanks for podcast. Hope the server room is dry. I just finished dealing with my mothers flooded basement here in CT.
