Hi from a y2k perspective, you have to apply sp 4 and sp5 for compliancy.
Your SFM services might be corrupt and "sort of " functioning so it may be
prudent to strip out the sfm and reinstall them. I think you may have
recreated the aliases fro your MAC clients.
Sorry, I do not know of any other quick fixes.
