| I admit that this is nasty! You can do different things:
Run the AFP server on W2K3 Server and connect this way. This has the added benefit of avoiding the ._* files which clutter up the directories were Mac files are stored. The downside of this approach is that there is a limit on the length of a filename under this AFP version.
Next, you can try the NFS server. It is tricky to associate user names correctly with NFS and I doubt that the performance is good (I have only tried once.)
To debug your situation, you need to increase the debug level of Samba on your Mac and check if you can find any errors in the Samba logs. Are you sure the server is up to date and there are no hardware problems with the network link? |
