Krzysztof Kowalczyk notebook: Accessing Mac file shares from Windows 7

  • hansen · 8 months ago
    Actually it is hitting everywhere from Macs to NAS and company servers running Samba or NT4.

    Jim Pinkerton from Microsoft has been talking to the Samba-team (the file server in Mac) and wrote the following:
    Sincere apologies, but wanted to confirm that there is an issue with NT Domain support in
    Windows 7. We're trying to expeditiously track down exactly the issue(s), but the short of
    it is I wouldn't spend time trying to get this functionality to work. We'll get some sort
    of official notice out shortly (and I do mean shortly).
    -Jim Pinkerton, Microsoft

    I really hope Microsoft will help Samba to get the extra security and then people who need to connect to old stuff, need to lower the security. That's fair enough.

    How dare they make it secure by default, and then require the (relatively few) users with issues to downgrade or turn off security! It's almost as if they care about making their products harder to break into to...
