Mac G5 10.3.9 Samba Issue with Windows 2000 Advanced Server??

I have just installed a new Windows 2000 Advanced Server network but the Mac G5s running OS X 10.3.9 Panther cannot navigate the server - the finder just hangs with a beachball. The PCs can navigate without any problems.
Navigation is fine on the G4 running OS X 10.2.8 Jaguar on the same network.
On the G5 I have tried creating a new user and put the Mac using DHCP but this doesn't solve the problem.
I think I have tracked down the problem to Samba but am not sure - When I type in the direct samba link to the server:-
smb://10.10.0.5
The "SMB Mount" screen asks me which share I would like to mount. This works without a problem. I create a shortcut to the share. This also works until I reboot, then the problem reoccurs!
I think I need to reinstall Samba, or update the Samba software?
Does anyone have any thoughts,
John
G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)

And with that dislcaimer...
What sort of settings do you have checked in your Directory Access > Services panel? That is, do you have SMB turned on?
Also, I would make sure that your server and computer's clocks are showing the exact same times-- just in case there is a synchronization issue.
Our Macs have had similar, but not identical, problems in the past.

  • Is Oracle 10g Express Edition compatible with Windows 2000 advanced Server

    I have installed Oracel 10g Express Edition on windows 2000 advanced Server, but it is not working properly, but when i installed it on Windows 2000 Professional, then it is working properly, Does anybody know why this is happening. If anybody know why this is happening, please tell me and also tell me how can i install Oracle10g xe in Windows 2000 advanced server.

    There should be no issues. A few possible reasons you are running into problems:
    - installation using a domain administrator (it works best using a local admin);
    - firewalls or anti-virus software or other port blocking mechanisms;
    - DHCP resets;
    However, unless you tell us exactly the symptoms we are only guessing.

  • Problems with RAC installation with Windows 2000 Advanced Server

    Hello,
    I've two servers in cluster mode with W2K Advanced Server, and a RAID-5 array of 4 disks shared by both of them. My problem is that I've installed The Cluster Service of Windows in order to have an active/passive configuration of my servers, because I have a common directory structure that is accessed by the PC's of the LAN.
    By another hand, I want to install Oracle Real Application Cluster to manage my Oracle database but after create the extended partition and the logical drives when I execute the file \preinstallation_rac\clustersetup\clustersetup.exe to create the cluster, when I select the option Create a cluster the following error message appears me:
    "Any disk Oracle partition has been found. Stop this wizard, create an Oracle partition and try it
    again."
    I'd like to know if it's possible to have the Service Cluster of Windows 2k and the Oracle clusterware?¿ Altough before begining the installation I've stopped my Cluster Service as documentation suggests. If somebody knows what it's happening to me I'd be really very grateful.
    Thanks in advance,
    Isabel

    Hello Joel,
    I've already read all documentation provided by Oracle about Real Application Clusters
    and I've not found anything to solve my problem. Certainly I want to use OCFS but when I
    try to execute preinstall_rac\clustersetup.exe to install CFS the error appear and I can't
    continue with RAC installation.
    Besides I've tried command "lsnodes -v" and got :
    Could not load CM.dll
    Could not initialize cluster
    And when I've tried to run "clustercheck" I've got :
    ** Copy File: Create Directory failed - Error 183
    ** Directory = \\192.168.1.111\Cy$\Temp\opsm
    Created directory \\192.168.1.112\Cy$\Temp\opsm
    Could not copy file to other nodes [error = 183]
    I've read metalink Note 186130.1 Clustercheck Fails with Windows Error 183 and the only
    proof I haven't done is get the clustercheck.exe release1(9.0.1).
    Any suggestion will be very appreciated.Thanks,

  • SAP ERP 2005 ECC 6.0 with Windows 2000 Application Server

    Hi,
    We are currently running SAP 4.6C in iSeries model 570 OS V5R3.
    I would like to know after upgrade from 4.6C to ERP 2005 ECC 6.0 if we will gain any performance improvement by adding Windows 2000 Application Servers in our environment.  Second Question - how much load will be taking away from the iSeries if adding one application server (Memory and CPU).
    Ramon

    Hi Ramon,
    what hardware do you use at the moment ?
    820, 870, 5xx ?
    How any CPUs ?
    How much memory ?
    You are on 4.6C ASCII right now ?
    In your case, I don't see, that Win 2003 servers help in performance, I would guess, that the CPU after the upgrade is about 60% which is still ok - then using 3-tier - especially in R3 environments is mostly not good for the performance because of the DB time increasement.
    The memory you will need is pretty the same for the iSeries.

    Sorry this is probably not the right place to post this but if anyone knows or can point me to the right place on how to find out if Oracle 8.0.4 and Windows 2000 Advanced Server with Terminal Server loaded are compatible, I would appreciate it.

    Thanks for the answer. Where in the 6.1 package is the thin driver?

  • SSLVPN connectivity issue with Windows 7 x64 All browsers.

    I think that I have tried everything to get this working but whatever I seem to do I cannot connect to my SSLVPN using Windows 7 x64. The 32bit version is fine. I have installed the Microsoft C++ Redistributable 2010 and 2005 for both x86 and x64. I have tried clearing the cache in the Browser. I have installed Chrome and Firefox , I even started my laptop using the 'Disable Driver Signature Enforcement' from Advanced Boot options but nothing is working.
    Does anyone have anything else to try. This is a bit of a showstopper for us because not do we have this issue with Windows but we have Mac users as well and that is also an issue.
    Cisco really needs to fix this issue fast...
    Please help.
    Thanks

    Try using both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Internet Explorer.  Sometimes one of the two will work.

    Restore from the backup you had prior to installing Mavericks.
    However, the upgrade should not have altered your partition scheme. Did your erase and format the drive prior to upgrading?

  • Major Issues with Windows XP and Sound Blaster Audig

    As mentioned in the post title, I'm using a Sound Blaster Audigy 4 card (recently purchased) and am having issues with Windows XP apparently because of it. When the card is physically installed, but the drivers are not, there are no problems. However, when the drivers are installed, Windows XP's "explorer.exe" crashes on boot, locking up the start menu and any other open windows. Now, I can manually end the explorer.exe application and then reboot it, and things will work... however, I cannot imagine that that is the intended functionality of this card. Additionally, I suspect the card in the failure of a game (Eve Online) but I would assume the issues are related. I've already narrowed the issue down to the Sound Blaster drivers. I've tried booting with the SB drivers but without the video card drivers, and the problem recurred. Every time I boot with the SB drivers installed, it fails. Without them, things seem to run normally. If it helps, I'm using an Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 processor, with GB of DDR800 RAM. I've installed Windows Service Pack 2 and all the other updates. The video card is a Geforce 7950 GT, with the latest NVidia Forceware (93.7) drivers. I've had this problem with both the Audigy drivers on the CD that came with the card and the newest ones downloaded from this website. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3, which includes onboard sound hardware, but I have disabled it at the BIOS level. I can provide dxdiag information or anything like that if necessary. Does anyone have any advice, suggestions, or have you encountered a similar problem?Message Edited by DerekKatz on 2-04-200603:2 AM

    Thanks for the helpful reply Dan
    I ran the file, CTZAPXX.exe, like suggested, and it ran without a problem. It installed the files and even required me to reboot my computer!!
    However, after a computer restart, I am still in the same boat. Codecs are installed, but the location of the device is "unknown". In Device manager, there are no unknown devices; it shows the codecs in the sound tab, but no actual hardware; as if my sound card does not exist.
    I use my computer for music, and my buddy needs me tomorrow night to play some music stored on my computer. I really do appreciate the help I am offered. I do not mean to sound impatient, but I really need this device fixed, or I will have to have him buy me a sound card....

  • Weird issue with Windows Server 2008 R2 Print Server

    I have an issue with Windows 2008 R2 (VMWare Hosted) running Windows Print Server. 
    Prior to a small network change, the print server was working well, hosting about 80 different networked printers from various vendors. 
    We made a change (that we ended up rolling back) to the Client's DHCP Scope OPT 006 (DNS Servers). The DNS servers never quite worked right and broke AD authentication to different servers, and was just a mess.
    After rolling back we are not able to keep the printers online. If we ping them from the print server, the printer(s) never wake up, when a print job is submitted. If we ping them from one of the access switches, they work fine (until they fall back asleep),
    to prevent this, if we start a ping on the server AFTER waking them up from the Switch Ping, they stay online and no problems. 
    If we stop the ping, they fall back asleep at some point, and again, won't wake up without intervention/switch side ping. 
    Has anyone experienced anything like this? Any tips on how I could possibly resolve it? 
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    According to your description, the issue seems to be that the printers can't keep online. Sounds like a power managerment issue. Why these printers fall into sleep? Have you consulted this issue with the manufacturer of these printers? Do these printers
    fall into sleep if them lose the contact with printer server? Have you tried to reset the printers?
    >>We made a change (that we ended up rolling back) to the Client's DHCP Scope OPT 006 (DNS Servers).
    DNS client will cache the recently queried records. If the DNS server has replied with a wrong records, communication issues will occur. To clear the DNS cache on a Windows device, please run the command below:
    ipconfig /flushdns
    Best Regards.

  • Itunes issues with Windows having to do with Apple's patent

    I had a thought and am not sure if it's right. I was wondering if myissues with Apple Itunes store on Windows 7 has anything to do with the Patent laws and all with Apple and samsung and all that.

    I had the same issues with Windows 8 Consumer Preview. I installed on a fresh system and still had issues.
    I experienced extreme lag, with pretty much everything, and iTunes freezing once I attempted to change the currently playing song.
    I had a mess with compatibility mode and found out that running it in with Compatibility mode enabled for Windows XP (Service Pack 3) and as an administrator fixed it. It works now, however, there is a popup message that comes up on launch telling you to change the compatibility settings, but pressing "OK" makes it go away.
    How?
    Open Windows Explorer, and navigate to: "C:\Program Files\iTunes" (For 32bit) or "C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes" (For 64bit), unless you changed it.
    Right-click on "iTunes.exe", select "Properties" from the context menu, and click the "Compatibility" tab.
    Under "Compatibility mode" check off "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and select "Windows XP (Service Pack 3)" from the drop down menu.
    Further down under "Privilege level" check off "Run this program as an administrator".
    Click "Apply" and "OK".
    Should fix any issues, I have my default iTunes Media Folder Location within an external hard drive so unplugging all of my USB's wasn't an option.
    Hope I helped!
