Client Upgraded from Tiger to Leopard Can No Longer Connect to Tiger Server

I just finished upgrading a G5 2GHz DP Powermac from Tiger to Leopard. This was an Archive and Install upgrade with importing the old settings. After verifying the account migration, including .Mac connectivity, and fixing all 3rd party software compatibilities/upgrades, I tried to connect to our Tiger 4.11 server by clicking on the server's Icon in the Shared section of the Finder Sidebar. The finder then switches to browse the the server for shares: "Connecting..." is displayed under the tool bar, with a "Share Screen..." and "Connect As..." buttons to the right.
At this point the "Connecting..." remains displayed with the spinning circle in the bottom right of the Finder window.... spinning. This situation continues for several minutes until is seems the system gives up.
If I click on the Path button on the Tool Bar, and go up to the Shared level, ALL the Shares on the Network are displayed, including all the Tiger Client machine shares. I can click on the triangle beside the Tiger Client's icon, and all the drives and home directories on the Mac are listed. All the client shares can be accessed without any issues. NOTE: There are no other Leopard clients on the LAN.
Prior to the Leopard upgrade, this client could connect to the Tiger server as well. All the other clients on the LAN can access the Tiger server also.
On the Leopard client I have tried clicking and the "Connect As..." button and using the menu "Connect to Server" and specifying the server's IP, and I get the same "Connecting..." message with a "non-connecting" result.
I can only assume that somehow the Account Name and password are not being passed correctly. But, using "Connect As..." should resolve that. However, "Connect As..." does not give me a user/password window!
If I check the AFP Access log on the Server, the only messages displayed are "Mounted Volume..." No messages in the error log, and no messages in the "Connections" section.
Can anyone help me figure out why the Leopard client can not connect to the Tiger Server?
My apologies if the description of my problem is a bit disjointed. I have been thrown into server admin and am learning "Trial by Fire".
Any help or suggestions on how to resolve this issue will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Gary

OK. A quick update.
After waiting for about 10 minutes for the rotating circle in the bottom right corner to stop, I was able to click on the "Connect As..." button. It took another 10 minutes, but the Connect As window eventual popped up. I entered the Userid and Password (saving to Keychain) and was able to see all the sharepoints on the the server. I browsed all the connected drives and folders without issue.
I then disconnected from the server. Reviewing the AFP logs on the server shows messages for the connection Login and Logout.
I then tried to reconnect to the server, and again another 10 minutes wait, although this time the Leopard client eventually connected automatically with the proper User, as per the AFP logs confirms.
Although, the client can now connect to the server, for it to take 10 minutes will be unacceptable to management, not to mention the end user. Tiger clients can connect in a couple seconds!
Is there a way to reduce the Leopard login time to, say, a couple seconds, like it does with the Tiger clients?
Again, any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

  • Can no longer connect to remote server via VPN

    I recently installed OS 10.5.8, and have found that I can no longer connect to my server at work. The VPN itself (via PPTP) works fine, it's just that when I try to connect to the remote server (via Connect to Server) I get a dialogue saying 'A volume failed to mount.' A further dialogue says 'Sorry, the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occurred. (Error code -6602)'
    Has anyone found a way around this, please? I'm disabled and I need to be able to work from home – without the connection I'm stuffed! Obviously I've tried rebooting the machine etc, but nothing seems to help.
    Thank you for any assistance you can give.
    Kitty.

    For some random reason this connection has begun working again – please ignore the question!

  • Can no longer connect to SMB server after upgrading to Lion

    We have a MacBook Pro that was running 10.6.8. The user upgraded to Lion, and can no longer connect to a Windows 2008 file server. (We have two offices connected through a hardware tunnel, but i do not think this is the issue.)
    We have tried to connect in the Finder (smb://[email protected]/). It asks for usr / pass, and then just hangs on "Connecting to server"
    We can ping, have tested these credentials on other computers, and tried other credentials on this computer, to no avail. Furthermore, we installed a fresh copy of Lion on another computer, and successfully connected, so I don't think the issue is with Lion itself.
    There must be something from the previous install that did not "upgrade" properly, but I don't know which file / setting it could be. It is system-wide setting, as we have also tried another user account on this same Mac.
    We've also run Onyx to fix permissions, clean out all caches, etc.
    Any idea what file i can change, modify, or delete?
    Your thoughts would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Yes, but the issue is not with Lion directly; there seems to be something with the upgraded system, perhaps a legacy setting or pref... I've scoured the system to no avail. I'm actually about to reinstall 10.6 - wasted too much time on this issue.
    Thanks for your help.

  • 10.4.7 - can no longer connect to mail server (SSL)

    After installing 10.4.7 I can no longer connect to my mail server.
    My mail server uses SSL on port 993 - but when I look at the error message when mail tries to connect I get the following:
    "There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account <accountname> or try again.
    The server error encountered was: The connection to the server <servername> on port 0 timed out."
    Why is it trying to connect on port 0?

    Found the solution in MacFixIt - unchecking the SOCKS proxy fixes the problem.

  • Exchange 2013 Upgrade to CU7 from SP1 - installs successfully - Can no longer connect via ECP/OWA/Powershell/Outlook/Autodiscover

    Hi There,
    I am having massive issues with my Exchange Server.
    I have 2 Nodes, one has CAS and Mailbox Roles, the other just Mailbox.
    I "upgraded" the CAS server to CU7 without any errors / issues.
    Once I had restarted, nothing worked any more..  I couldn't access ECP, OWA, Powershell, Autodiscover or get outlook to connect.
    I managed to get Powershell working, but changing the physical directory to "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\ClientAccess\PowerShell" from "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\FrontEnd\HttpProxy\PowerShell"
    But for the life of me I cannot get ECP or OWA working (haven't even tried anything else)!
    I am getting a load of Events with ID 1003.
    The only error I am getting is:
    Server Error in '/ecp' Application.
    Method not found: 'Boolean Microsoft.Exchange.Net.Wopi.WopiRequestPathHandler.IsWopiRequest(System.Web.HttpRequest)'.

    Unfortunately this is very urgent for me a these are production servers and currently there is no email for my company.
    So Please please please can someone help.
    I have tried many many many things from various sites, and so far nothing has worked.
    Thanks,
    -Tim

    Hi Tim,
    We can do the following steps to have a try:
    1. Check Application settings in IIS Application under Exchange Back End web site for BinSearchFolders value.
    a. Open IIS Manager. Expand Sites > Exchange Back End.
    b. Click ecp. Open Application Settings in /ecp Home.
    c. Please check whether the value for “BinSearchFolders” is changed to an invalid value.
    2. Verify Authentication settings for OWA and ECP.
    a. In IIS manager > Default Web Site, make sure Anonymous Authentication is Enabled in Authentication.
    b. Confirm that "Require SSL" is checked on the root of the default website.
    c. Make sure the Basic and Forms authentications are enabled in Default Web Site and Ntlm, WindowsIntegrated authentication methods are enabled in Exchange Back End for both OWA and ECP.

  • Can no longer connect to network server after upgrading dsl modem

    While I was working on a file that resides on a network server, the router was powered down so on reboot it would communicate with a dsl modem . After the router was power up I could not reconnect to the server.
    I have internet access
    The mini can see the server in the finder and the server sees the mini
    This is not a wireing issue.
    When I try to connect I get this message:
    "The file server uses an incompatible version of the AFP Protocol. You cannot connect"
    The server is an old mac running os 9.1. I've read that 9.1 is not compatible with 10.4.8. But it worked just fine this morning.
    There are other macs (cubes) running 9.2 I can connect to them.
    I've tried restarting and logging on as a differernt user. no change

    Thanks for your help
    I made no changes to the mini or the server.
    The router was shut down then on restart the new (replaced modem) was configured by using another mac on the network (not the file server)
    Once the router and modem were online again, other macs running 9.2 were accessing the file server as usual. The mini was not.
    I had been working on a file that resides on the server. I was not warned that the router was going to be shut down. When I saved the file I got the beach ball then error message.
    It'll be next week before I'm in the office agin. I'll report back then. Thanks

  • Mail in Mountain Lion can no longer connect to Hotmail server

    A couple of days ago I suddenly got the warning triangle next to my hotmail accounts in Mail on my Mac running Mountain Lion 10.8.1. Clicking on them or looking in the connection doctor just says that it can't connect to pop3.live.com, verify all account details etc. I've already tried all of the standard troubleshooting steps including (but not just) removing and re-adding the accounts and verifying all account details etc and nothing has worked.
    Does anyone know if this is a Mail problem? Completely out of ideas and Google doesn't seem to have anymore answers to try...
    Any help appreciated!

    Thought I had the same problem, find out that any account won't work. Hotmail/Webmail (domains)/work mail/ISP mail. Nothing works.
    All give the time-out error.
    edit:
    Tried to add my iCloud mail, got the same error when setting up my account.

    I have an HP Printer/scanner, and since upgrading to Mountain Lion I can no longer scan on my HP.  HP tells me that I can get an upgrade app from 'Apple Software Upgrade' .  Does anyone know how to do this?

    HP couldn't find its own apps with both hands and a flashlight.
    As of Lion all scanning functions are incorporated natively in OS X. You can scan three ways:
    Use Preview: File > Import from scanner
    Use Image Capture
    (Preview and Image Capture are both in your Applications folder.)
    System Preferences > Print & Scan. Select your HP and use the Scan tab.
    If you have HP's "Image Zone" software installed, you no longer need it and it no longer works anyway.

  • After upgrading the new operating system, it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select

    After upgrading the new operating system on my Droid Razr M it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select multiple message you have to delete them individually or the entire thread. Is there a way to get these back?

    Well, that's kind of embarrassing. And I honestly thought I paid attention to that... It works perfectly now, thank you so much!
    As expected, cdm-git also works fine since DMs only work in the root mode as of now.
    Just for the record, both type commands output "/usr/bin/startx" and pacman -Q gives "systemd 215-4".

    Since upgrading to 8.0 I can no longer print from Mapquest Classic. It's not a Mapquest problem it's a Firefox problem as I am able to print using IE. I haven't encountered any other sites problems yet but I'm sure it's to come if I don't get this fixed. I need to be able to print. How can I fix this?
    I also do not like the new layout. How can I go back to my previous version?

    What precisely do you mean by deleting the podcast app from both the phone and Mac? I have deleted the podcast app from my phone but on my Mac in iTunes->iPhone->Apps it shows up albeit with a button labelled "Install". I've resynced 3 times and when I try to access my Podcast playlist in the Music app, I still get a message telling me that podcasts have moved to the Podcast app. I'm really sick of some of the changes Apple  has made to their software.
