At IU, using Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard), why can't I connect to some Samba interfaces?
In the initial release of Apple's Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard), authentication via ADS did not work. Consequently, Leopard users cannot connect to the Samba interface offered by Siteshare on Webserve, the Research File Service (RFS), or the Scholarly Data Archive (SDA) at Indiana University.
The problems with RFS and SDA were fixed with the Mac OS X 10.5.3 upgrade released May 2008; if you are using Leopard and wish to use Samba to connect to RFS or SDA, upgrade to 10.5.3 or higher.
To use Samba to connect to Siteshare, upgrade to Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
