Hi, I think maybe the problem you're having is down to the way your company's AD is set up. In my own organisation, AD groups refer to their members by their Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDN), as opposed to say cn, recordName, sAMAccountName or whatever. For example, say whereas my user...

Can somebody please tell me how to assign admin rights on a 10.4.2 client machine to an Active Directory user? Our AD is Windows hosted on our corporate network. I can log in on the client, using my AD authenticated account. I do have a local Admin account on the machine too of course...

Interesting thanks. Does that include Server 10.4.2? I vaguely recollect I had the same problem with the 10.4.2 Client when I installed that on the same test machine. I could be wrong about that though. I'll be re-installing the server version again v soon so I'll make sure I try the Mac Help...

Thanks for the help. I'll try recreating his account tomorrow. Don't know if it's significant but I recently upgraded his Adobe CS to CS2. Illustrator CS2 keeps coming up with spurious low memory type errors on launch. [still, what do I expect with v x.0.0 of anything?]. The display problem...

Shouldn't that be smb://servername/sharename ? Otherwise the Mac prefixes it with afp:. I can't connect to SMB shares on Windows servers from Tiger Server either way anyway. Nor can Windows clients map to SMB shares on the Mac. I can login on the Mac with my AD account OK, meaning my UserID...

Hi, Hopefully someone else will already have come across this problem and save me tearing the rest of my hair out! One of our Mac user's Apple Cinema display appeared to be faulty. The whole screen looked very contrasty and graduated tints were blocky in appearance, rather than smooth...
