It won't work properly (although it will "kinda" work) on
anything before
Tiger (10.4.3), and make sure you apply all of the updates. I had to fark
about for ages with a unicast resolution problem.=20

Apple, in their genius, opted to break any domain which ends in .local (you
know, the default for SBS/Server 2003?) by using a DNS resolution model for
that address only that's incompatible with windows DNS server - so every
address other than the domain controller can resolve ok.

This however was fixed during the time I was working on it, by an update to
the Directory module - so being up to date makes the .local problem go
away=

I am now a proud follower of "the white side" after picking up
the last of
the old model 17" iMac (1.8, 512,160gb, Wif-fi. BT etc) for =A3599
(inc VAT=
)
at PC World over the weekend.
Just ordered an extra 1gig of memory for it from Crucial as its a little
slow with images etc.=20
Other than having to get to grips with a whole new OS and not really
understanding how to fully integrate it into a Windows 2003 Server domain
(Any pointers appreciated!) I'm quite impressed. But maybe because its just
so darned pretty! :-)
