If anyone can help me out here I have a Windows 2003 server and it crashed since then my macs have not been able to write to that server but can read. I have tried deleting the shares and recreating them, Also deleted the folders recreated them I also formatted the partition where they save all their work. Still Nothing....They have permission. The thing is they can save to other 2003 servers. I am stumped anyone able to help here???

Macs can only read from NTFS drives

Server 2003 must have Services for Macintosh for windows server installed and enabled to get a Windows server to interact properly with macs

http://technet2.microsoft.com/window....mspx?mfr=true

Perhaps this service was not switched on when the server was restored
