Accessing Mac File Share from Windows Server 2003

I currently have a windows domain that has a few Mac OS x leopard servers on it. I can map a drive to the Mac share using windows XP and Windows Vista, but I cannot map the drive in Windows Server 2003. I have enabled the Windows Sharing on the Mac server, and enabled the Mac File Sharing on the Windows server, but the windows server does not find the Mac server. I can ping the Mac server by FQDN and IP, but when I go to map a drive to it I get the error:
The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occurred: An unexpected network error occurred.
I have also checked the Local Security Policies, and did not find anything that would cause the issue. Any ideas anyone?

Does anyone else have any ideas? I checked again today and receive "The specified network name is no longer available" and after a few more attempts "An unexpected network error occurred"

  • Windows 7 x64 can't read/install any printer drivers from Windows Server 2003 x64 (AMD64 folder and HP Deskjet 855c)

    I read the thread Widows 7 printer
    HP deskjet 855c driver about possible installation of HP855c drivers onto Windows 7 x64 from "Windows Server 2003 x64" CD but I didn't have enough luck to succeed with doing it on my laptop. That thread appears to be dead now
    as it is marked "Answered", so I'm asking for help here. I have Toshiba Satellite P500 with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (http://i55.tinypic.com/2zgth6v.jpg). 
    Let me tell you first that I don't have access to Windows Server 2003 x64 or XP Pro 64 CD's. However I did some research online, which eventually forced me to learn about the "file sharing". After extensive search I was able to get the copies
    of AMD64 folders from Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard x64 with SP2 and
    XP Pro 64. The reason that I went also after XP Pro was because I thought that the extra wording "R2 Standard x64 with SP2" in description of "Windows Server 2003" did not reflect the exact name provided by poster
    Alan. I couldn't find just "Windows Server 2003 x64" (does it matter?).
    Anyway, I followed first the drill with running "printui /s /t2" and disabling UAC, and then in both cases I was able to locate the
    NTPRINT.INF file (http://oi51.tinypic.com/9qwvt2.jpg - this image is from XP Pro AMD64 folder) but each time when I
    attempted to install the driver, I got the same message stating:
    "The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software drive for your device. If the folder contains the driver, make sure it's designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems." (http://oi53.tinypic.com/27yveiw.jpg)
    Why aren't there x64 drivers?
    During several installation attempts I had the printer connected to or disconnected from my laptop. It didn't make any difference. I must add that for this purpose I had to use different cable than the original one designated only for the
    Parallel port in my old desktop with Windows XP. My new laptop with Windows 7 x64 came only with 3 USB ports (plus 1 HDMI and 1 Serial). Because of that situation I bought in advance a new printer cable called “USB to 36-pin Parallel Port Adapter
    Cable” (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003A8I75E). I'm not sure, if it will work until I can install the printer.
    Besides, nobody talked about this issue yet. I was also playing with the port choices in "Add printer" step; changing from default LPT1 to USB001 with the same negative results.
    I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I was very hopeful after reading positive "case closed" notes there.
    Can anyone help me here, maybe by making the necessary files available for download? I'm willing to pay for such assistance or make a donation, if necessary. Seriously. Judging by the large number of views of the original
    thread, one could assume that there is a potential demand for such service. It would be more human to pay few bucks for a few driver files than $900 for the whole Windows Server 2003 x64 CD, no? Can Microsoft accomodate me/us, please? :)

    P.S. I was advised to come for help here from
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-hardware/windows-7-x64-cant-readinstall-any-printer-drivers/4e7d06e1-33a5-4597-be70-4fdc087a63a7?msgId=9a045994-0d31-4d40-b17d-dba372393ee4

    I have my HP 855c/driver working on Win 7 Ultimate x64. I used the 'printui /s' procedure and 4 files described above with some minor changes.
    I pulled WindowsServer2003.WindowsXP-KB914961-SP2-x64-ENU.exe down from the Microsoft website. Running the file causes the exe to unpack into a temp folder at the root drive. A 'Setup Error' message box is displayed once the file is run. I left this
    message box up until I copied ntprint.inf, ntprint.cat, and sp2.cab from the temp folder.
    I copied driver.cab from a Windows XP Pro disc. I also needed amd64\stdnames.gpd which was already in my Windows 7 c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 folder.  
    I created a folder with the 5 files (ntprint.inf, ntprint.cat, sp2.cab, driver.cab, and amd64\stdnames.gpd). This is my 'Have Disc' folder. 
    I followed the 'printui /s' instructions, first changing the permissions mentioned above and then installing the driver. Next I followed the instructions to add a printer from Control Panel 'Devices and Printers' - 'Add Printer', choosing to 'use an existing
    driver' when installing the HP 855c.
    I used a slightly different ntprint.inf, size 1570418. The readable contents of ntprint.inf is as follows. Notice the line 'CatalogFile=ntprint.cat' is not included. I tried using the 1570468 version of ntprint.inf; when I did I received an incompatibility

    one more thing u can also rename ur database by using nid utility ,So u have no need to recreate the controlfile for changing the name of ur database.just restore all files from primary to new server ,create new service by oradim ,start the instance and then use NID utility.

  • Access linux file system from windows and vice versa

    Friends
    Do anyone of you have any idea about how to access linux file system from windows using java. Thanx in advance.
    Regards
    Rakesh

    "Accessing" is vague. Do you want to read? write? Both?
    Here are two ways I'll mention.
    1. Write an ftp client for the "cleint" computer. I beleive java has some framework functions for doing this.
    2. Write java RMI client and server to open, read or write, and close a file. Pass a byte array parameter containing each block of data.

  • Windows 8 and IE10 and 11 not accepting Proxy Settings via Group Policy from windows server 2003

    Hi
    We are still running Windows Server 2003 with a Win7 and Win8 desktop environment. I can control Win7 IE9 settings,
    But Win8 systems are running IE10. We have an internal proxy server.
    Is there any way to force the proxy settings to the Win8/IE10 or 11 systems .
    i have tried with The IE 10 .adm template and applied gpo,but does not have any proxy settings for ie10 and no changes were applies
    please can anyone help me regarding this
    i want to apply GPO from windows server 2003  to windows 8 ie10/11
    Thanks
    KNC

    Hi,   
    I agree with Zanderol24, we can install RSAT on a windows8 client, and then we can use Group Policy Management to manage group policy from the client.
    For more information about RSAT, we can refer to the following link:
    Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) for Windows Client and Windows Server (dsforum2wiki)
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/2202.remote-server-administration-tools-rsat-for-windows-client-and-windows-server-dsforum2wiki.aspx
    For more detailed information about how to use GPP to configure the proxy setting for ie10 and ie11, we can refer to the following link:
    How to configure Group Policy Preference settings for Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2012 R2
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2898604
    When we use GPPs you need to be aware of the F5-F8 keys:
    Red / Green: GP Preferences doesn’t work even though the policy applied and after gpupdate \force
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/grouppolicy/archive/2008/10/13/red-green-gp-preferences-doesn-t-work-even-though-the-policy-applied-and-after-gpupdate-force.aspx
    Besides, aside from using group policy to manage IE, IEAK can also be used to do this.
    For IEAK, the following article can be referred to for more information.

  • Issues when Sharepoint Services 3.0 OS upgraded from windows server 2003 standard to windows server 2003 enterprise

    In my sharepoint 2007, I have upgraded the OS from windows server 2003 standard to windows server 2003 enterprise R2 SP2. After the OS upgrade when I run the central admin it's showing this error "Microsoft Windows Sharepoint Services 3.0 Error 2908
    error has occurred" screen shot below of the error. 
    Any help?

    Not sure I can help.  In general MS does NOT support the upgrade of the Underlying OS without re-installing SharePoint.  Many of the prerequisites that were installed when SharePoint was installed are OS specific.  You can either contact
    Product Support and see if they can provide any assistance or re-install SharePoint from scratch and re-attach/migrate all the existing databases with content into the new system on the new OS.

  • Transferring network user files from Windows Server 2003 to Mac OSX 10.5.8

    I'm wondering if any network admins out there have a suggested method of transferring network user files from a Windows Server 2003 to an XServe running 10.5.8?
    When we did the file transfer, clicking and dragging, there were a myriad permissions issues that subsequently arose. Surely there is a way to strip permissions off files PRIOR to the transfer?? Maybe not, but I'm wondering how you folks have done it.
    We have had nothing but persistent permissions issues since the transfer (i.e. folks who should have access to files, being denied access, including the local server admin!!). This also translates to synch errors for network mobile accounts.

  • Laserjet CP2025 share issue (64-bit drivers from Windows Server 2003 32-bit).

    Hi,
    We are migrating our Desktops from XP 32-bit to Windows 7 64-Bit and I'm trying to update all of our printer drivers on our Print Server (Windows server 2003 32 Bit).
    I am adding the new drivers by opening up each printers properties on the print server, going to Sharing and then add new driver and directing it to the relevant folder for the 64-bit drivers for the printer.
    Every printer (HP, Panasonic, Brother) has worked so far, except for the HP Laserjet CP2025. The Net Express installer doesn't work. Nor do the Universal Printing Drivers (PLC 6). Does anyone know a way around this?
    Thank you.

    Can anyone help with this? I'm in a difficult position with this. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Several folder shares on Windows Server 2003 R2

    I have serious problems at one of our clients. They just switched from PC's to iMac's and MacBook Pro's. The backup platform is a server running Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 and there are several shares on this server.
    Some of these shares should only be accessible by normal employees and others only to management etc.
    When connecting to the shares from OSX all folders are visible even when creating a different layout with user access lists for each folder.
    Is there any way of fixing this issue?
    Example
    Share Users - Access Everybody
    Share Admin - Access Network Administrator
    Share Administration - Access Management
    All this worked perfectly on the Windows setup!

    I have the same problem on our PC networ with PC servers. Several departments have converted to using Macs and they are able to mount to shared drives and see everything in it. My question now - is there a way to be able to access a windows shared folder for ALL USERS WITHOUT the share getting mounted on the Mac desktop?
    If I created an alias of a particular Mac app or file on the Mac desktop that is stored on a Windows shared folder for all users. How can that alias work for ALL USERS without having to prompt for a uname and password and/or mounting the whole volume to the desktop?
    I'm not happy with Macs running on our network but I don't have a choice on this.

  • Mail cannot open hyperlink of file located in windows server 2003

    My macbook air has access to shared directory located in a windows server 2003 machine via smb mount. However, when I get an email containing a hyperlink of a file located in the shared directory, mail cannot open the link. Any ideas?

    You might read the EULA and confirm the issue I have mentioned. I might not be correct in my estimate, but just gave a sounds like opinion. If it is a violation, then removing it is wise. Typically, Acrobat must be installed on each individual machine. There are multiple license options and server options, but you would need to contact Adobe for more information on those areas. Hope you can get them to talk to you in such a case.

  • Cannot access Mac OS Partition from windows 8 running in boot camp

    So I installed Windows 8.1 Pro through Boot Camp but I can't access the Mac OS partition from windows even though boot camp partition shows up while I'm on Mac OS. I have installed all the drivers from apple but still it didn't work. Then I downloaded Paragon HFS+ which was free for windows 8 and 8.1 thinking that this would solve my problem. The instructions told me to change the drive letter for mac partition from disk management by right clicking the drive pressing "change drive letter and path" button. But the "change drive letter and path" key in grey color and I can't press it. Can somebody please help?

  • Connect SQL Server 2012 from Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0

    Hi,
    I currently have a setup where ETL tool Ab Intio, running on a Linux server, connects to the SQL Server 2005 through a passthrough Wintel server with Windows Server 2003 OS using SQL server native client 9.0
    Now I have the requirement to upgrade the SQL server from 2005 to 2012.
    My question is, will it be possible to connect to SQL server 2012 through Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0?
    As per the specs, I need native client 11.0+ to fully support SQL Server 2012, but then, as per specs, native client 11.0 doesnot run on Windows server 2003. OS upgradation is currently not on the cards.
    So will it be possible to the run the basic queries we use currently, if we can connect SQL server 2012 through Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0/10.0, without updgrading the OS of the Wintel server?
    Thanking you in advance! 

    Hi Soumya,
    Yes, you can use the SQL Server Native Client shipped with SQL Server 2005 to connect to a SQL Server 2012 instance, and there is no need to upgrade the operating system.
