Are Windows Network Credentials Saved Somewhere?

I'm trying to connect to a Windows server from a Mac OS X 10.4 machine, but I keep getting locked out on the Windows network side. I've logged into this (and several other Windows machines) many times in the past, but I suspect my old Windows network credentials are saved somewhere on this Mac.
I have to have the IT guys here at work unlock me constantly, every time I try to connect to this one server. Since our Windows server credentials need to be changed every 90 days, I'm thinking the Mac OS has stored a previous set of credentials, and when I try to connect to this server again, it asks me for my User/PW and it doesn't match up with what I have stored.
Make sense?
How can I delete any previous Windows network credentials, if this is indeed the problem? I just deleted System Configuration preferences in Library/Preferences, but I'm still not able to connect to this server.
I have nothing saved in System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items
Any help?
Thanks!

Check these two Uitilities out, thogh PWs may get stored elsewhere too, ByHosts folder is a common one.
Keychain Access
Most Passwords are stored here.
Directory Access
CIS/SMB and AD settings.

Terminal window scrollback is saved somewhere?

Dear Mac enthusiasts,
Every Terminal window has a history, which is evident because you can scroll all the way back. In the Terminal Preferences there is even an option where you can set the Scrollback to unlimited, or limit it to a number of lines.
My question is, is this history saved somewhere in a hidden system file or something like that? Or is it only saved in the Terminal process memory which means when you close the window, or worse, exit Terminal, this history is gone forever?
The practical thing I'd like to be able to do is to access the scrollback info from a Terminal window that has already been closed. I catted (unix command cat) a file, then deleted the file, then closed the window, but I'd like to recover the contents of that file in this way. I know, stupid, but if there is a solution, I'd like to hear it!
Best regards,
Jan

Dear VikingOSX,
I created an account and logged in just so say Thanks! The info you gave is golden! In Terminal I tiped open ~/.bash_history and the entire history of anything I've ever typed in Terminal was there. I edited removing mistakes and what I didn't need (as sometimes I need to scrollback and remember the command I used for specific operations) so that is a small "memorandum" id commands if you will.
Once again thanks so much for the useful info provided!
The history command is history. For instance:
history
history | grep -i cat
You can also use the recall operator and related — all of this is part of how bash works.

CUPS won't allow printing in a Windows network

I just spent five days trying to get printing working in my OSX 10.9.2 (iMac). Here's the thing: the printing network is a Windows smb network. Everything works fine on my MacBook OSX 10.9.2. I can manually install the smb://xxxx/yy printer and it works just fine there. So what's wrong with my iMac? I have no idea, but this is what happened. First I tried installing through Printers & Scanners / Advanced. And it worked fine on OSX 10.9. I used guest/guest credentials for the Windows network printer when asked.
But after upgrading to 10.9.2 it stopped working. The queue window says Ready to print and refresh or Resume does nothing. In the error log it says "ERROR: error in CUPS Filter - : Broken pipe". And also there are possibly problems with authentication.
Then I tried installing the printer through the CUPS web interface. Had weird problems with it, as it's very hard to control users and authentication. At one point I thought I had cracked it, I was able to print with my Windows network credentials. But the next print did not work anymore. I had to uninstall the printer and install again to get just one print. After trying to set users right with different sudo commands I am now at point where I can't even get one print through.
What can I try? I have done Reset many times from Printers & Scanners, no difference. What does the broken pipe mean? And how to set the printing CUPS user to what I want (it needs to be different than my OSX user or "root")?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Select
/var/log ▹ cups ▹ error_log
from the hierarchical list on the left side of the Console window. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the time of the last failed printing attempt. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.

Windows network shares disappearing when users are logged on to Mac

We are having some problems with windows network shares disappearing when users are logged on to Mac computers.
We have a number of Mac labs that users can logon to using their AD login credentials. Their network shares are saved on a windows file server. The ad plug has been configured on each client Mac as has the LDAP plug-in. It is configured to connect to the Xserve which is running as an OD master. The system preferences for the client Macs are being managed from the Xserve.
The problem for the users is that they can log into the Mac no problem and they can see their network share appearing on the desktop and in the dock, but for some reason on random Macs and with random users the network share disappears. If they log off and log back in again the network share is still missing. As it happens randomly I can not put my finger on what the problem is.
Most labs either have Intel iMacs running 10.4.11 or Intel iMacs running 10.5.5
Any help will be appreciated

Mike,
We need to know some basic scoping information to provide any further input.
1)
Is the user prompted that the server will be shutting down?
2)
Does Task Scheduler show that the task ran at the scheduled time?
3)
Are there any errors in %windir%\tasks\schedlgu.txt?
4)
Does the problem still occur if the machine is in its own OU with blocked inheritance?
Does the problem still occur in a clean boot configuration with MSConfig
Steps to clean boot machine:
================
Start > Run > Msconfig > Select Services > click "check box", "Hide all microsoft services" > Disable all
Start > Run > Msconfig > Select startup> Disable all
Reboot
Thanks,

I've recently added the MacAir to my Microsoft /Windows network. The Mac sees my printers but all the printers are "paused" and I cannot print, even if directly attached. How do I fix this?

I've recently added the MacAir to my Microsoft /Windows network. The Mac sees my printers but all the printers are "paused" and I cannot print, even if directly attached. How do I fix this?

Yes, I've that and it didn't work. Today, I reinstalled printer software on one printer and the "paused" message changed to "offline". It's a three-in-one printer. I turned off and on again and it still says "offline"
"

I accidentally deleted some of what I recorded and then saved. Are any of those files saved somewhere?

So I was working on a song for hours and when I finished, I zoomed out and noticed that I had deleted the majority of the song on one of the tracks. Please tell me that these are saved somewhere. And if they are, where are they?

as long as you didn't delete the entire region, just drag the bottom left, or right edge to bring back the rest. if you did delete the entire recorded region them once you saved, it was gone.

Unable to print from MacBookPro to printer in Windows network

Hi,
I am trying to print from a MacBookPro on an HP printer connected to a desktop computer running Windows Vista.
MacBookPro - running Mac OS X 10.7.5; 2 GHz Intel Core 7; 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Windows desktop computer - Acer Aspire M1100 running Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 32-bit; 2.1 GHz AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core
Printer - HP Deskjet F2210 All-in-one (printer, scanner), connected to Windows Desktop via USB (direct, not hub)
Wired/Wireless environment - Motorola SBG900 Cable Modem, to which the Windows Desktop is connected either wirelessly or via Ethernet cable
The printer will print documents when connected directly to MacBookPro via USB, but over the network, this is showing:
On MacBookPro: In the printer queue, the message shows, "Waiting for print job to complete..."
On the Windows Desktop: In the printer queue, the size of the document comes up as ...KB/...KB (in my case, 10.7 KB/13.8 KB) - won't change, number of pages "N/A"
On the printer front panel: blinking On/Off button light (blinking slowly, suggesting printer is still busy) - the printer will start to kick into action, but the only thing happening is that blinking light...
... and that's it! From there, there is no more progress (even after 10-20 minutes); you have to cancel the print job on both the MacBookPro and the Windows Desktop.
This is what I have tried already:
Making sure both machines are in the same network (check)
Making sure both are in the same subnet (check)
Deactivating Windows firewall and the firewall in the router/gateway (does not solve issue)
Logging in to Windows Desktop over Finder on the Mac using a user name that is the same on both machines (does not solve issue)
Deleting Keychain Access stored passwords in case they were incorrect (does not solve issue)
Making sure drivers for printer are up-to-date on both MacBookPro and Windows Desktop (check)
Deleting the printer from the MacBookPro and letting the system find it by itself when printer connected directly via USB (does not solve issue)
I have also tried installing the printer as described in Apple Support article HT3049 (How to manually add a Windows shared printer.) It seems like there are two ways to add a printer, one is by using the "Windows" button in the "Add printer" window toolbar, the other is by using the "Advanced" button. Both did not help.
I exchanged the printer cartridges, since low ink levels apparently can also cause errors when printing in a network (read that somewhere here - but does not solve issue either.)
In order to see if the Windows version has something to do with it, I connected a Windows 7 laptop to the printer and tried to print from the MacBook wirelessly to it (no success there, either).
When printing first when we got the MacBookPro, I think it worked to print over the network, but for whatever reason, things won't budge at the moment. (I guess, it's a driver issue, but the drivers are up-to-date.) I must be doing something wrong, I just don't seem to be able to figure out what, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Can no longer find Printer on Windows network

I had a connection to the HP LaserJet 4050 at work and accidentally deleted it. We have a Windows network. I remember using the Windows Printing option before, but the printer no longer shows up when I select Network Neighborhood. The only thing that shows up is workgroup. Here is what I remember doing before:
- Bring up Print & Fax in System Preferences
- Click + to add a printer
- Select Default Browser
- Click More Printers
- Select Windows Printing from the top pop-up menu
- Change Workgroup to Network Neighborhood in the pop-up
Someone else has tried this with his Mac here at work, and the above steps worked. He has a Mac Book Pro 17". I am running a Powerbook G4 15". If it matters, I set up the printer on my system back when I was running Panther; this is the first time I have tried adding the printer while I've had Tiger.
The only thing I have gotten to work is the hint on MacOSXHints (http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20051204134420783). While this did work, I do not want to have my network password in my printer preferences (or wherever they are kept).
Powerbook G4 (1.67GHz) Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Yes, this could have happened after any number of updates, since I'm almost positive that I added the printer under Panther. This first came to light with OS X 10.4.6. I do not know when I first saved the printer, but I know it was prior to Tiger. Actually, now that I think about it, it may have been a different computer, too. Where my older computer was Panther and my new computer is Tiger. I do not remember exactly how I dragged over my user folder from the backup. I may have updated it to Tiger before copying it over to the new system. Of course, if the printer does not come over with my user prefs, then I must have set it up under Tiger.
I cannot say for sure if the IP address of the printer has changed or not. However, connecting it to the other Mac worked. At the time, we both had 10.4.6, although his is Intel and mine is PowerPC.
The name of the printer has not changed nor the location. The name consists of two letters and underscore and two more letters (e.g. ab_cd).
I have tried having a connection to the server where the printer is located and trying to add the printer while it is connected. I was hoping that, with a connection, the software might be able to find the server.

CoExistence in a Windows World - OSX SL Not Seeing Windows Network

This will be a challenging post, I suspect.
OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.3: Finder is unable to see the windows network to which it is attached. Conversely, the windows network sees my iMAC and it's little sister (my wife's Mac Book Pro) just fine and dandy.
The Windows workstations have no trouble connecting to the MACs, and the MACs have no problem connecting to the PCs (SMB://ipaddress or machine name)
So why then can I simply not use Finder>Go>Network and see all the PCs and MACs on my network? Applecare couldn't help with this either, except to recommend a reinstall of OSX. Seems silly, because the iMAC is three days old, so nothing has been added! (Yet...)
Here's the setup:
Home Network, all rooms homerun with cat5e wired to structured media closet in basement housing nice cisco gig-e switch uplinked to Motorola Router to cable provider.
5 Windows PCs + Server (3 kids w/win7, Laptop w/win7, server w/linux, and Mediahub) and 2 new MACs.
Both MACs have same problem, can't see windows network, but can attach to shares and can be browsed from PCs Network (Neighborhood).
MACs - Firewall off, Shares On (File, Screen, DVD), DHCP Leases from Server, WINS and DNS entries correct, Workgroup Membership correct)
Me... STUMPED...

Is this helpful: Set Up Your Home Network, Windows 7 Edition - PC World? The following is for Leopard, but you may find it applies reasonably well to SL:
Simple guide to Leopard/Windows Home Networking
Written by Intercepter121 and originally posted on the Apple Discussions here.
If your network complies to the minimum requirements described below you should be able to share resources without any need to enter commands in the terminal to modify configuration files in your mac.
Requirements
1. A decent router
2. Mac Os x 10.5.1 installed on your macs
3. Windows XP or Vista
4. Number of network devices <10
5. Some network printers or drives (NAS)
6. A decent ISP offering a good DNS service
General Settings
If your router offers DHCP and any of the device has power saving features there is a risk that the IP addresses are renewed. This can be problematic as the devices keep changing IP addresses. As this is your network is strongly recommended to reserve IP addresses to the MAC (Machine Address Code) of the various devices so that they can power on and off and still keep the same IP.This simple suggestion will greatly improve the browsing of the local network.
Accessing Windows Resources from Leopard with no authentication
Windows
1. Check the settings of the PC and ensure the IP addresses on the local LAN are trusted
2. Activate sharing on the desired devices ensuring the shares are read and write. If you use Vista ensure password protected sharing is disabled.
3. Try to access the windows share from another windows computer if available to confirm no authentication is required
MAC
1. Go into system preferences->security-Firewall check that the setting is not on allow only essential services. Recommended settings is allow access to specific
2. Go back into system preferences network. On the tab location click edit locations. Duplicate Automatic and call the new location Home. Now select the Home location and go into Advanced-WINS. In the workgroup field enter the same value that is on the other windows computers for example HOME. Now press enter then go back to the main screen. Select Edit locations and delete the location automatic. Now edit your location Home and rename it Automatic. This workaround is a leopard bug described here.
3. Give 5 minutes to allow all the other machines to broadcast their IP address and the other computers should appear on the left side of your finder window. You can now select the shares you want to connect. As no authentication is active if you are prompted with a user name just press OK.
The procedure to access a NAS is the same as above, just ensure permissions are set to files are read/write for anyone to avoid confusion.
NOTE: There is no need to activate SMB sharing if you don't want to allow the PC to read folders on your MAC
Troubleshooting
After you have followed all the steps you don't see any windows PC.
Identify the IP address of the machine you want to connect. In finder select Option+K and enter SMB://IPADDRESS. If you can connect you have a name resolution problem. Go into your router configuration and ensure that the option DNS assigned by ISP is selected and you don't have services like Open DNS in use and fixed IP addresses in that field. Apply the changes and reboot the router. You should start seeing windows PC in finder shortly after.
Your ISP DNS service is poor and you must use Open DNS or similar
If you are forced to use services like open dns you have the risk that the router propagates the DNS servers to your machines. As the implementation of SAMBA in Leopard effectively blocks the MAC to be a master browser for performance reasons you end in a situation in which tiger machines connect and leopard ones don't see a single share. Let's fix it.
1. Go into System Preferences->Network then advanced DNS if you see here the IP addresses of the open dns servers this is the case. Unfortunately you will be forced to change the hosts file.
2.Ensure you have reserved IP addresses to all your machines so that they always get the same IP.
3. Now login into your mac as administrator and go into utilities=>terminal.
4. Issue the following command sudo pico /etc/hosts
5. Now scroll down and enter all the IP addresses and computer names of any device you want to browse
6. Reboot your MAC
The windows devices will now appear in finder and you will be able to connect with Option+K.
You cannot access shares even entering the IP address
You have not reserved IP addresses to each machine. Go into your router LAN set up and make sure that is the case.
Accessing Leopard resources from Windows
1. Go into system preferences->security-Firewall check that the setting is not on allow only essential services. Recommended settings is allow access to specific
2. Go into System preferences->accounts and click on Guest flag the option Enable guest account to access shared folders
3. Now into System preferences->sharing select file sharing and then options here flag SMB and select the user that has to be logged into the computer when the share has to be accessed. Ensure that the folder you want to share has read/write or whatever permissions you like it to have set for Everyone
You should now be able to see your MAC in the windows network resources and access the shared folder with a double click without any password request.
Troubleshooting
You don't see any MACs from Windows
Check the firewall settings at the start of this post. Then go back to the Network configuration hit advanced and then TCPIP check is using DHCP and not a fixed address. Then check the sharing is set as above with SMB clicked. If SMB is not set you won't even see your mac from windows.
You see the MAC and the shared folders but you can't read or write on it
Ensure you have set the guest account to access shared folders. Then check on the sharing preferences that there is at least one folder with read permission for everyone. The classic case here is Dropbox that leopard sets as read and write for the user of the MAC but no access for other users. You try to click on drop box and receive an error but when you actually try to write a file you can do it. Check the permissions on the subfolders of the share as those permissions will prevail on the home shared folders
FAQ
You may want to do more complicated things, but first ensure you can actually share files without security in place so you can identify the root cause of your possible problems
I want to password protect my windows shares: once you have done the relative set up in windows vista and ensured you can connect from another windows machine you will need to use user name and password of the Vista user to connect.
I want to password protect my MAC shared folders: Go into user account and disable guest access to shared folders is no shared folder has to be accessed without password otherwise leave it checked. Create a new user for sharing (better than giving away your password) so that this user only accesses the folders you want to share. In System preferences network select file sharing SMB and flag only the new user you have defined. Then go back to the folder section and set the permissions you like on the folder you want to share for this newly defined user.
Good Luck
Last suggestion: Select Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu and search for "windows." There are numerous help articles. You can find the same articles at support.apple.com and searching for "windows network." Then narrow the product to Mac OS 10.6.

Wireless authentication to a windows network

IF this is the wrong group please let me know and I will re-post...
I am trying to solve some problems authenticating to a windows network using a airport card....
I keep getting a non-trusted certificate message after/during the 802.x authentication box..We are not using certificates, at least that is what the admin tells me...so I have logged in as root, opened keychain and set the certifcates in question to trust always for all settings...I log out and then relogin as a normal network account and I still get the message which I can click continue and now I have access..
the other problem is that my home folder will not mount...I have to mount it manually through the finder..I am assuming this is because the airport network services are not running until I authenticate locally with a cached password....Is there a way to have the login window authenticate through airport so I can have my home directory mount automatically...
thanks for your help...

unfortunately there are severla problems with the solution and it really doesn't address the issue. I can't mount the volume on the dock as it won't mount, probably because it is the server itself that has been mounted, not the shared home folder. Also it might create a conflict by having an alias to the home folder that would conflict with the auto mounted home folder when I use the ethernet as a connection source. What I have is a multi-purpose machine.
1) I use a hardwired connect at my desk...
2) If I need to go somewhere that a port in the wall is not active, I can then use a wirless connection which allows me access to everything I need....
What I need to do is get this working so that the rest of the area can use it as well....
So the question still remains: Does the wireless authentication not mount the home directory because it is not tied into the login window. For example, in a hardwired case I login to the system and this authenticates me and mounts my home folder. When I unplug the ethernet cable and turn on ariport and log off I login to the login window but the 802.x box comes up and asks for my password....which then brings up a not trusted certificate. Which I have tried everyhting I know to make this accepted by the system, including logging as root and going into keychain and setting it to be trusted. This DOES not work. I still get the untrusted certifcate message and the home directory does not mount. So what I need is someone who is authenticating to a windows network using wireless. I have followed all the 802.x suggestions which include using only peap to authenticate through.
I hope someone can tell me how to stop the untrusted certificate error and how to mount the home directories. It would seem that there should be some type of setting to make airport startup prior to the login window or be hooked into the login window and pas that through to the wireless authentication. This is beyond my experience as you can see...
thanks

Windows Server 2012 R2 - Windows Network Load Balancing Converging Issue

Hello,
My name is Brandon. We have started upgrading our servers to Windows Server 2012 R2. We have some powerful servers for running ESXI 5.5 as the OS with the Guest Operating Systems as Windows Server 2012 R2. As far of our migrations/upgrades we have configured
ADFS 2012 R2 into a Server Farm with Windows Network Load Balancing to add redundancy in the event a server goes down.
I have been having issues with a Node with the Cluster getting stuck in the Status of Converging. The only way I have been able to get it back up is to restart the virtual server completely and it is temporary. When I first configure the Cluster the two
virtual servers get added to the Node with no problems and fully converge. However, after some time a node will end up in Converging and this takes Authentication for ADFS down as the nodes can not be contacted over Port 443.

Thank you for your response. It took me a while to figure it out, but the whole issue was related to the type of Virtual Network Adapter I was selecting.
I changed the network adapter from E1000 to VMXNET 3 and have not had a single error in the event logs or Windows NLB.
I read somewhere that VMXNET 3 is preferred for Windows Server 2012 R2.

Mac Pro 10.6.4 - I can SEE the Windows network, but I can't connect!

So I have a brand new Mac Pro dual 6-core machine in the design department of our company, and it's sweet. However, this is one of two Macs on an all-Windows network, and we're newly having some trouble.
Until recently, I could (on our iMac running 10.6) see and connect to our network with no trouble, sign in to my personal folder, etc. Now, however, the IT guys just updated the servers (and I don't know the configuration, or even what specs are critical to know), and while I can still SEE all the network drives, I can't connect to them, no matter what I try. I've tried different workgroups (which show up in my WINS Network preferences), I've tried adding search domains, I've tried using Connect To Server... with smb:// addresses and also browsing through the drives and connecting that way... I'm always told either that there was an error connecting, the server/share doesn't exist, that my login credentials are wrong, etc.
I know that I am using my proper username and login for the servers, I know that the names of the shares I'm trying to access are correct... but something is amiss here and I have no idea what it is. Is there something that needs to be done on the network side of things that I don't know about? (I'm sure more info about the network setup would help in this regard). Is there anyone who is dealing with this same issue?
Please help me with the benefit of your experience and knowledge... we need to get our Macs up and running... or we'll be stuck on Windows machines forever!
Thanks in advance,
Matt

mh, that's really hard to solve because it's probably something the IT guys did with the network.
only a few hints:
if connecting via "connect to server", try to use IPs and not computer names, so smb://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx instead of smb://server1. also, don't add the name of the share directly to the adress. just type the IP and you will see all available shares.
secondly, mac OS seems unable to connect if the user on the other computer does not have a password. I suppose your users do have passwords, but just to be safe.
other than that I can only imagine it being a problem on the windows side, blocking the mac or something. macs don't always see PCs in their network automatically, but the "connect to server" approach never failed on me. of course I'm only in a small home network

OSX authentication to a windows network

We have a user in our company who purchased a new Macbook to use for her job. We run a websense internet filter here that grants access depending on what group your user account is assigned to in Active Directory. This user needs to have elevated permissions to access certain webpages and has been granted that on our network, but since her laptop doesn't authenticate to our network it doesn't get assigned the proper level of access. I know I could set up access to a folder share and have them do it that way (i'm assuming since I'm not very OSX savy), but I was wondering if there were any other built in features that would be easier for this person to use. Thanks.

unfortunately there are severla problems with the solution and it really doesn't address the issue. I can't mount the volume on the dock as it won't mount, probably because it is the server itself that has been mounted, not the shared home folder. Also it might create a conflict by having an alias to the home folder that would conflict with the auto mounted home folder when I use the ethernet as a connection source. What I have is a multi-purpose machine.
1) I use a hardwired connect at my desk...
2) If I need to go somewhere that a port in the wall is not active, I can then use a wirless connection which allows me access to everything I need....
What I need to do is get this working so that the rest of the area can use it as well....
So the question still remains: Does the wireless authentication not mount the home directory because it is not tied into the login window. For example, in a hardwired case I login to the system and this authenticates me and mounts my home folder. When I unplug the ethernet cable and turn on ariport and log off I login to the login window but the 802.x box comes up and asks for my password....which then brings up a not trusted certificate. Which I have tried everyhting I know to make this accepted by the system, including logging as root and going into keychain and setting it to be trusted. This DOES not work. I still get the untrusted certifcate message and the home directory does not mount. So what I need is someone who is authenticating to a windows network using wireless. I have followed all the 802.x suggestions which include using only peap to authenticate through.
I hope someone can tell me how to stop the untrusted certificate error and how to mount the home directories. It would seem that there should be some type of setting to make airport startup prior to the login window or be hooked into the login window and pas that through to the wireless authentication. This is beyond my experience as you can see...
thanks

Printing to a Windows Network printer after 10.4.9 upgrade

Very desperate with this. We have a couple macs at the office and after a move and some software updates all cannot print via a Windows network printer.
Unable to connect to SAMBA host is the only error we receive.
I checked my smb:\\ syntax, I have tried IP address, tried picking from the list (which by the way the printers do show up yet you cannot print to them)
Extremely frustrating and with an Anti-Mac IT director this gives him more ammo to say Macs are irrelavant in the workplace.
The Macs are bound to Windows Active Directory and the users are Active Directory users. We do not have a Mac OS X server. Our printer server is Windows 2003 SP1, the printers range from an HP LaserJet 4100 to a Xerox WorkCentre 24, all do not work.
The ONLY network printer that appears to work is the printer associated during the login
Curious if anyone with 10.4.7 and higher have problems....

More info...here is the cups/error log when trying to print from a newly added Windows network printer...looking for some help on this....

Windows Network Guru?

I've done some playing around and now I'm more confused about ATV than ever.
I have a small peer-to-peer net in my house, five computers hooked in (two wirelessly) and all running XP. ATV works fine on the computer I chose to use it with but I brought up iTunes on one of the other computers this morning and it doesn't see ATV even though "Look for Apple TV" is on in iTunes. I tried turning off Noron AV (I don't have the Windows firewall turned on), starting and stopping the various iTunes/iPod services, etc, but no luck.
Now, it doesn't really matter all that much to me (really not at all) but I'm guessing this is symptomatic of some folks who are also having trouble getting ATV to show in iTunes -- only in their case they are in trouble because they don't have alternatives. Right at the moment I can't think of anything else to troubleshoot this, but if any of you Window network type gurus are reading this and have some more things to try I think it would be worthwhile to track this down.
It's pretty obvious it isn't the net, or ATV, but something peculiar to one computer here versus the other. The one it isn't working on is running NAV (and the other is using MacAfee) but as I said I tried turning Norton off and that didn't make any difference. They are use the same version of iTunes. They are both wired into the router -- could it possibly be that even though the other one isn't running iTunes that somehow the iPod services are interferring? (I'll try again later with that computer off but right now it's rendering and I can't interrupt it).
(I tried another wireless computer and it couldn't see ATV either -- something is really fishy here).
Like I said, ideas, suggestions or winning lotto numbers would all be appreciated.

I see (I think) -- let me walk through this slowly. I first make sure the computer is on with iTunes that I want to stream from (the non-syncing one). ATV won't show up there. Now I go into the room with ATV and go to sources (I assume) and I'll see this new computer there and get to select it and be given a code. Then I go back to the other room with the code and enter it... somewhere? into iTunes (does ATV then show up at that point?) and then I can stream?
I'll try this process -- can I assume that if I do this once I don't have to go through the hoops the next time I want to stream from this other computer?
