Re: [OT] Mac help needed

[Simon Pawson <SimonP1234@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Keith,

background
From the SBS2003/Vista angle this may emphasise may be an issue with the
security SBS2003 and vista have. Later windows use NTLM2 / NTLMv2. I had
issues with my NSLU2 slugs and still have opportunities between
machines.

solution
For instance a quick google gives
http://www.linux-watch.com/news/NS4434907782.html.
You can switch NTLMv2
off see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/147706
or other google sources
for "ntlmv2 disable". Basically you switch LAN Manger Security
back to
the previous level:
Run gpedit.msc then:
computer configuration\windows settings\local policies\security options\
and  In "Network Security: LAN Manager" authentication level,
change the
Setting from "Send NTLMv2 response only" to "Send LM &
NTLM -- use
NTLMv2 session security if negotiated."

Hope this helps,

Good luck,

Simon
