    Hello,

    Proud to be an "Apple Free zone" person but... i'm 'lucky' to have a possible customer joining network with another company and they are using Mac's products.

    So,i have an SBS2008 and i need to enable "File sharing" on the server for Mac clients.
    I will be much obliged for your assistance in the right direction !

    Thanks in advance...

    It's for SBS 2003 but i assume the principles are the same.

    Good luck with that. I have had to do that before and it's a real pain. The smallest change to the folders will force you to have to redo the process again. Getting them on the AD network is another mountain of a task and don't get me started on group policies!

    A quick update:i gave up,told that Microsoft has stopped servicing / supporting other platforms.
    Relying on third party software to provide business services are not on my menu !
    They've got few Windows PCs and working in tandem !
    Thanks for feedback !

    Happy ... windows !
