I've been beating my head against a new G5 (just updated to OS 10.3.3) for
the last
couple of weeks in an effort to connect to some shares on a Windows
2003 server box on our network. Whenever I try to access anything on
this particular machine using the Finder, I receive the following
message:
"The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in
"smb://server/share" could not be read or written. (Error code -36)"
In the above scenario, I'm clicking Go-->Connect to Server... and
typing "smb://servername/share" in the prompt. It takes quite some
time before the above error message appears.
The really strange part of all this is that I can connect to this
server from the terminal without any problems using:
smbclient //server/share -U <username>
Also, I have no problem connecting to other servers on the network
using the Finder, even those using Windows 2003 server. I've also
tried "smb://workgroup;user@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
" and end up with the same
problems.
In my searches, I found information about disabling digital packet
signing on the Windows 2003 server. I disabled that, which did take
care of some other connectivity problems, but it didn't solve
everything completely.
Any thoughts?
