Windows file sharing…
Background: About 500 windows machines (PC’s) and 400 Macs. The Pc’s are all joined to a domain.
I have an x-server I use for file sharing, on the mac side running 10.2.8.. My users and groups are all set –up, works great for the Mac users.
Some PC’s were added to a few labs because of some windows only software. I have been trying very unsuccessfully to allow users to log on to the x-server shares from these PC’s. It is driving me nuts!
From the pc, I type in the name of the share, the Pc sees it and asks for user name and password, the returns
Domain_name and the password field.
It appears to be checking the name and not finding it.
I have been over every setting on the server and it appears it should work. Talk to the Domain admin and he has no clue on Macs, he thinks it should work.
I guess it is time to ask for help.
So HELP!
Thanks in advance,
BK
