View 2 RepliesI've recently bought a macbook and I love it, but am trying to connect to my outlook server and having a few problems. Firstly I can't access OWA through Safari at all, every time I type it in it says 'Safari can't find the server' - it is sbs2003, and this works fine in IE Ideally I wanted to set up access through Mail or Entourage (2008) however I've read that it is not possible to connect to exchange through this. Frustrating as I have just bought this and have a free upgrade to 2011 but only home and student so apparently this won't have outlook on here either. I have been trying to connect for days and I just can't figure out the best way to get to my emails? if you could point me in the direction of a good walkthrough that would be great.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've tried typing some search terms for what I think I want to be able to do, but I'm getting nothing relevant- I figured I'd just spell out my problem on the forums and see if there are any solutions. I work for an EMS organization that has several windows workstations (running xp) that connect to a larger server, which hosts our shared drive ("U") as well as windows specific programs for generating reports. Specifically, one of our call logs is a microsoft access database that is linked via our network to generate a specific reference number for our calls.
Now, I'm moving up in the world and going to be directing human resources and pr for the agency, and while the windows workstations are nice, I am a damn fine mac user and would love to use my unibody 17" pro for the job. Here is where my questions come in. I'd like to use my mac running virtualbox, parallels, or whatever with an xp install to connect to the server and have a typical workstation desktop (the U drive, network attached programs) next to my osx desktop. I know macs can access shared drives on server 2003, but can I set up a virtual machine to emulate one of our workstations?
I can successfully connect to my work server (Windows 2003 Small Business Server) using the built in VPN utility. That isn't an issue.
However, once connected I have no way to navigate the file system to be able to copy and paste files between our server and my MacBook Pro. I'm not sure why.
When I'm in the office and am connected to our network via ethernet cable and connect to the server via VPN, the different drives show up in the Shared section in Finder.
However, when I connect remotely from home those drives don't show up in Finder.
I have a Windows Server Standard 2003 that i use as a file sharing server. Simple Workgroup, not a domain environment. I have two Mac pros that have intermittent connection problems to the server.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAfter some searching, I've seen three tricks: disabling IPV6 on the Mac, doing the same on the PC (my Windows Server 2003 installation didn't have it installed), and adding a line to my /etc/smb.conf file. None seem to really give me full transfer speeds.
Are there any tricks specific to Windows Server 2003 or anything new to make this work like normal? It's simple file transfer over SMB, seems like at the 5th iteration of Mac OS X we'd have better speeds.
One day the users started to complain that the mac we have can't login to the domain so I sat down for 30-45minutes trying to figure out what had caused it - only to figure out that it was simply because the time was off by 5 minutes so the domain controller refused the connection. Is there a way to syncronize the time?

I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.8. Is there a default setting on either the server or the Mac to allow for this to happen?

if this will run on an Intel Mac? Is there any reason to think it wouldn't, assuming I installed all the right drivers, etc...?

The daemon encountered an error processing request (10002)

I looked for a introduction forum but couldn't see one so hello guys and gals. Great forum you've got here..Right my issue is as follows.I have a new iMac Pro on snow leopard 10.6.4 and it is linked to a Windows SBS server 2007 but i don't think i've done it properly.When i switch the machine on all i get on boot up is 1 local user Sometimes i can leave it and it will offer me the 'Other' option which i can then login to the server But most times it doesn't to that... I have to logon as that local user and then unbind the windows domain and rebind it then when i logoff it shows me the 'Other' user Also another thing thats annoying is it doesn't map anything automatically i have had to create a alias icon on my desktop to go to my server space and it can take up to a minute to connect to the server..

I've searched high and low and can't find any reports of running Server 2003 on a 2008 Mac Pro via Bootcamp, 32-bit or 64-bit. Has anyone done it? I found a few instances of people having trouble getting it running on MacBook Pros and other systems. I also found an article on a workaround to do it on a MacBook: [URL] Even the 32-bit version of Server 2003 can handle 32GB of RAM via PAE and I have several licenses for it.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm just posting for the archives my success with installing Windows Server 2003 R2 with SP2 Standard Edition on a Jan 2008 Mac Pro (8x2.8 GHz, 4 GB RAM). I've installed Server 2003 a Mac Mini (1.83 Ghz), MacBook (Late 2006) and an iMac (early 2008) and didn't find the information available online to be greatly helpful, so hopefully this post will help somebody like me sometime in the future. To set up Windows Windows Server 2003 R2 on a Jan 2008 Mac Pro:
Boot OS X and run Boot Camp Assistant as usual. Install Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 as usual (comes as 2 discs, but only requires the second disk upon your first successful log in so this isn't a problem with bootcamp). Eject the Windows installation CD in the windows explorer by right clicking the D: drive and selecting Eject.........................
I'm trying to connect my Macbook pro to our Exchange Server 2003 via Entourage. Entourage is asking me for the "LDAP" information, and cannot complete setup without it. But our server doesn't use LDAP configuration.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI read this article which explains that Exchange Server 2003 is actually supposed to work: [URL]
Exchange Support
Apple has built in support for Microsoft's Exchange Server 2007. This is what, on a PC, pushes and synchronises all your email, contact info and calendar entries to Outlook and your phone. By doing this, OS X's Mail, iCal and Address Book apps sync up just like Outlook. Note that if your company is still running Exchange Server 2003 (ours is), you will still be able to sync Snow Leopard with your office server. We confirmed this with Microsoft, a spokesperson from which said, "Correct -- it will work with Exchange Server 2003 as well." Our IT boffins here at CBSi confirmed this too. I know it's still early, but has anyone had any luck getting this to work? I'm about 30 minutes away from installing the $29 SL on my laptop. And I'm really hoping to have the ability to eliminate having a PC desktop on at work strictly for the connection to our exchange server 2003.
I've looked high and low for the answer to this with no luck. I've mapped a lot of my windows network shares at work on my MacPro running leopard without problems. However, I'm extremely stuck trying to connect to the last one which is located on a special DMZ (demilitarized zone) server.On my windows machine I simply use the ip method and I'm prompted for login credentials. It's important to note that the login credentials for this DMZ network share are different than my usual work domain login (the Mac uses that same login with no issues).
View 5 Replies View Relatedon setting up an OD master to accept kerberos from a AD domain and I can't get AFP to work.
What I've done:
1. Bind OD Master to AD
2. Destroyed the OD Kerberos realm
3. Ran sudo dsconfigad -enableSSO
When I log into a client that is bond to both AD and OD and try to access a SMB share on the AD side it works. When I try to access a SMB share on the OD master it work. When I try to access a AFP share on the OD Master it fails with the error " The user Authentication Method required by this server can't be found". Now I think this error is because I'm forcing Kerberos authentication, if I change AFP setting to any method authentication I get promoted with the AFP login window, I enter my AD account information and I'm able to mount the share.
has anyone been able to set up an exchange account in Outlook for Mac 2011 with Small Business Server SBS 2003? Microsoft claim that Exchange 2007 or later is required but I wondered if there was a work-around.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI manage a small network of 15 users, and they all currently have PC's running windows XP Pro SP2. There is 1 accounting server running server 2003 SBS, and a File Server for the Lab running SBS 2003 SP2. There is 1 user who uses RRAS setup via VPN to connect to the files and work from home on weekends etc.. the laptop he has is brand new, setup and managed all his settings so that the environment will be easily manageable. Now, the problem is, intermittenly he cannot connect to the shares, the network goes down, the server hickups, it needs rebooting, its setup properly, everything is ok, it runs good, I upgraded the ram, to 4GB.
this happens waaay to much, and I spend way to much time fixing these issues over and over, from possible firewall issues on his laptop, that have been corrected, to just no connection getting through from him, when clearly most of the time the thing works. The server has not been tampered with at all, neither has his laptop, both systems are 100% virus/spyware/bot free............
I'm running server 10.4.8, how do I authenticate NT domain users on this? I tried to set the server to be a Backup Domain Controller, but then it wants Open Directory to be in replica mode. The problem there is that it needs an Open Directory server to replicate.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI connect to a Windows network. We recently upgraded to a Windows Small Business Server 2011 server from a Windows SBS 2003. Previously I had been able to connect and view all files. I am no longer able to. I can see the server, but whenever I try to log in, it says that I have the wrong name or password. I have tried many different combinations of the domain as per my network admin. How can I connect? Is there something different I have to do.

When setting up the certificate would i set the dNSName to  domainname.com or to server.domainname.comÂ
My mail server host name is set to server.domainname.com so i would assume this is the correct one, but emails are addressed to name@domainname.com so
I want to be sure i am setting this correctly before i generate the csr
I've registered a domain and it works wine when anyone enters www.mydomain.com. However when I type the domain name without 'www', I get the following:Network Error (tcp_error) A communication error occurred: "Operation timed out" The Web Server may be down, too busy, or experiencing other problems preventing it from responding to requests.

Here again dealing with how OS X deals with .local domains I think.Was previously bound and all was working fine. Have just updated to 10.7.4 When trying to login using the "Other User" the button stays red and says Network accounts unavailable. I can ping domain server by name and IP.Permissions have been rebuilt.
Have rebound. Had a problem at first unbinding inside the Open Directory Utility as it said it could not connect with the domain and an unused account would be left if a forced unbind was done. Tried again by using the minus button instead of the Unbind button and it worked without any message.
So then binded to the domain and all looked good. Green button next to Network Account Server in the Users and Groups.

I'm trying to turn an old Windows machine into a media server and file server, but not sure which Windows apps are Mac compatible. This is sort of hit and miss to post here, as it mainly involves looking for Windows applications, but the mac would be using them so it's sort of suitable.
I have setup a DLNA server for PS3 already which is working correctly. I've setup a UPNP server called Air Video for use with media for the iPhone and iPad.
I tried to setup an FTP server for use with files from both machines but the mac would not connect to it. It kept saying the login was wrong but it was right. I also setup a VNC server which the iphone using iTeleport could connect to but the Mac just would not connect.
So the main question is: Is there a FTP and VNC server for Windows which works 100% with a Mac as the client? After these two are working the server is completed.
