Resolve Windows server connection issues via UAM
Maybe its the other way around that you have to make your Mac use encrypted password.
I have had this problem with a couple of 2000 servers at work. After a while it bugged me enough that i spent most of an evening sorting it out. Tried moving my ~/Library/Preferences out and the problem disappeared. After fiddling around with various parts of the contents of the Prefences folder I almost gave up.
Then it dawned on me - it could be the infamous hidden preference named ".GlobalPrefences.plist". Once this was removed the problem disappeared for good.
I am not sure but after comparing my new .GlobalPreferences.plist with the old one it could look like the following (afp_cleartext_allow=true) could be the culprit:
Anyways problem solved here without UAM or changes to the server.
Resolve Windows server connection issues via UAM
This is interesting. So you're saying that your old .GlobalPreferences.plist file contained afp_cleartext_allow=true in it? Because mine currently contains afp_cleartext_allow=false. Though I don't know if this value was changed by the Microsoft UAM. I did try removing the Microsoft UAM and playing with these values but they don't seem to work any way that I try them. I can only get it to work with the Microsoft UAM installed. As a side note (and a plug), I am developing an application called Defaults Manager that helps you manager your application preferences. The .GlobalPreferences.plist is actually represented by the NSGlobalDomain and appears at the top of the list in Defaults Manager. DM is the best way to search, archive and edit your preference files. |
