macintosh >> Connecting Macs to SBS 2000

by Phil Peak » Wed, 15 Sep 2004 15:49:47 GMT

We are running a combined net work of PC's and Macs
running on SBS 2000. Previously we havn't had the Macs on
the network but now we need them connected. All the macs
are running OS10 v10.3.5 I'm able to connect to the
network ok but it logs on automaticaly. I can use the
internet from the mac ok. I would rather it came up with
a secure logon like it does for Secure network logon for
SBS when the Macs are booted. Is this possible.

Many thanks Phil

Hi Phil!

I believe you're looking to integrate Mac OS X with Active Directory. If
you'll go to < http://www.apple.com > and search for "Active Directory"
you should see some results that may help you.

Hope this helps! bill

1. NEWBIE: Apple OSX on SBS 2000

Hi there folks,
Is there an idiots guide to putting an apple laptop client (running OSX)
onto SBS 2000.  The Microsoft knowledge base guides seem to refer to the
older apple operating systems. I need to be able to access email, internet
and files with the apple.
Many thanks, David

I'm trying to connect a macbook to a network with a windows 2000
server.
With a cable which is working with a windows machine I don't even get
an ethernet signal, with the wireless I don't can connect but not even
ping the server (the configuration is the same).

Now what could that be??
The sysadmin doesn't know anything about mac world, I'm a linux

7. Applescript to connect to Windows 2000 SFM share from MAC OS 9.2 Client

Hello All,

My name is Kevin Smith. I am working with Apple Macintosh G4 with OS
9.2 and OS 91. We also have some X but mostly are still on 9.1 and 9.2
We have Windows 2000 Servers with Services for Macintosh installed.

I would like to script the connection to these SFM shares. Each share
has a username and password. So for example server1 runs windows 2000
with SFM It has Mac share share1, username is user1 with password
pass1. I would like to hava script on the MAC that mounts share1 on
server1 and passes username and password to server1.

My script would be something like this;

try
  mount volume "afp://server1/share1 as user name "user1" with
password "pass1"
end try

This doesn't work.

If I don't pass the username and password to it my script would be

try
  mount volume "afp://server1/share1
end try

Now I get a prompt asking for username and password. I can then mount
the volume share1.

I think the problem is that the MAC UAM is sending clear text and
Windows 2000 wants encryption. I have installed the latest Microsoft
UAM but to no avail.

Is it possible to force a script to use the Microsoft UAM?

I am using the latest version of AppleScript and AppleShareIP client.

Any help much appreciated,

Best Regards,

Kevin.
