I am using OSX.3.2 and trying to connect to a windows server on the network. In 10.2 i was able to do 'connect to server' and see a list of all of the servers on the network including the windows servers but now in 10.3 when I go to connect to server I dont see a list and I have to type in the address. I know that the Network icon in the finder has more functionality than it did before but I still dont see the windows server. Any ideas?

thanks

Congratulations--you just found one of the most annoying things about Panther!

Still waiting for a fix...
I do not like those green links and spam.

This doesn't work for me as well, which is annoying. That's one of the reasons why I reinstalled my old copy of DAVE (v4.x; the latest is v5.0.1), which seems to bring back Jaguar-features and stability that have been "lost."

Thanks for the reply's its good to know im not the only one with a problem. Its nice of apple to remove features that work so they can bring them back in future OS releases as "new features"
