Hi Steven!
Mac files placed on a server via an AFP connection generally won't be
usable when later accessed via SMB. These two file sharing protocols
place the files on the server in different ways and they aren't
compatible.
Have your Mac users copy their files from the server via AFP, reconnect
via SMB and then copy the files back to the server. Not an elegant
solution but it should be the most reliable.
Hope this helps! bill
