Does anyone have any experiences with integrating Samba and Thursby Software's ADmitMac? All of our Microsoft XP and Win2000 workstations work just fine with Samba, but I'm having a hell of a time getting ADmitMac to play nicely with Samba. Conversely, ADmitMac works great with Microsoft NT4, 2000 and 2003 servers. I'm not able to browse the network let alone join the OSX machines to the domain. Samba is v3.0.20 running on FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE. Macs are running OSX v10.3.9 and are fully patched. I've tried both ADmitMac v2.1 and 3.0 with same results. Any experiences with ADmitMac in the Samba community? Thanks, --Sean Noonan.

There IS a trial version. You can use it for 30 days, I believe. Just a note of caution. AdmitMac Version 3 has a bug in it that primarily affects its operation in Tiger (10.4.2). The original release (build 867) would give you mysterious "File I/O errors" on large and fast file transfers. The current release that you can download (build 868) seems to rigidly clamp down transfer rates to about 9.5 MB/sec -- even over Gigabit Ethernet. By contrast, the original release (build 867) gave you around 55 MB/sec transfer speed over Gigabit. BUT, with the occasional "File I/O error" that could cause your application to freeze.
