Hi Michael!
If your servers have the hisecurity policy enabled, which is unusual,
then you definitely won't be able to connect using Mac OS X's built-in
SMB client. The hisecurity policy greatly limits what a server can do
and who can interact with it.
If you're satisfied with the limitations when using File Services for
Macintosh then it is your only solution outside of third party software.
