We are running NT server and trying to authenticate Mac's. The logon
screen isn't displayed on the Mac. I can't even see the UAM from the
server or the Mac Accessible Volume I created.
Once I get the UAM, I know about dragging the appleshare folder into the
system folder...but as I said I can't see it.
The Mac's do have access to our 56K line so all the IP settings are OK.
