Hi,

I am managing a network with a Windows 2003 File Server. There are three Macs on my network. One is an Imac Mac OS X 10.5.8, with this one i have no problems. The problems is with two macbook pros also with Mac Os X 10.5.8. Sometime for some unexpected reason they can connect to the Server (smb). I have tried using the Finder -> connect, Finder-Network. Most of the time they can go for an hour trying to connect to the server. The only thing that works is rebooting the Macs. Is there a way to restart the service without rebooting both laptops.
I dont know where are the logs on a macs.
(I am linux guy so this is a problem out of my usuals.)
 
Make sure the every computer is using the Same Time Server as the domain server. See if that helps.

Plus bookmark the web site MacWindows.com and read their user reports. Some of their users have reported fixes.
