Make sure that you have compatible security settings [secpol.msc for Local
Security Policy] and for SMB signing and lan manager authentication level. I
just tried it and was able to access a share on an XP Pro workgroup computer
and a Windows 2003 domain controller from my iMac but not my Windows 2003
domain controller and interestingly enough failed "logon" events using ntlm
were recorded in the security log of my Windows 2003 Domain Controller of my
logon attempts. I then configured the security setting for Microsoft network
server:digitally sign communications(always) to be DISABLED, ran gpupdate,
and then was able to access the share on my Windows 2003 domain controller
from my iMac. --- Steve
