[QUOTE="LarryInASquared, post: 1008083, member: 145682"] Hello- First of all, I know virtually nothing about Macs so I thought I'd join a few forums and get some help with a project of which I have been assigned at my workplace. Please bare with me if I over-simplify my objectives. I have been asked to scour the Mac communities in search of information how anyone manages Macs in their Windows networks (on a corporate level). I guess (from what I have been told) currenly have about 35 or so Macs (Leopard and Tiger OS x) currently in our Windows 2003 servers network. I've also heard that some of our Mac users have issues with losing files on shared corporate drives (file extensions being truncated, and such). What I'm looking for is what resources we might need to effectively administer our Macs integrated in our Windows environment. For instance...is the addition of a Mac server necessary? Are there any software (file mangemetn software) we might need on our Windows 2003 file servers to manage the Mac files? We use McAfee to maintain our security. Will that work well with our Macs? I guess I'll start out with that. I appreciate your input. -Larry [/QUOTE]
