Microsoft has released new Mac OS 8/9 and Mac OS X UAM clients with NTLMv2
support. No more lowering of the security bar to support Mac clients. They
are available for download at:
http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/win2ksfm/default.asp

I haven't used it much, but the OS X one appears to support accessing the
UAM volume from classic mode apps as well.

The NTLMv2 and classic mode support give it the edge over the built-in SMB
support in OS X, but I wouldn't be surprised if we see these built-in in the
near future. Native NTLMv2 support in OS X without the need to run SFM on
the server would be great.
