[QUOTE="Infosystems, post: 1210399, member: 196792"] Hi all, Am new here and only have about 6 months experience with macs so please go easy! :) I have a problem at the moment that I cannot connect to a windows server 2003 share from my snow leopard imac, however, and this is the strange part, I can connect to the share for the first ten minutes (roughly) after the mac is rebooted??? So the share is obviously working but I can literally leave the machine on and doing nothing connecting to the data shares fine and then when the magical ten minutes is up it just sits on connecting and when I click "connect as" it says that the server is unavailable. I have got 3 other macs on the network, seemingly exactly the same, and they have no issues whatsoever! Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Sam [/QUOTE]
