The glaring difference with Apple being that they are a particularly huge and visible company. So until that time, save your would-be schadenfreude, and instead see if you can realize the hard fact that - just like you and me - Apple has to abide by the licensing terms (of GPLv3) for Samba. :)Īnd if you can go convince Samba to revoke, reverse or give up their use of GPLv3, go right ahead. Or the better method would be to upgrade OS X so you're not dealing with an 8 year old client operating system trying to connect to a 5 year old server operating system.

Microsoft network server: Digitally sign communications (if client agrees) Microsoft network server: Digitally sign communications (always) I don't know for sure, but OS X 10.4 may only have support for SMB 1.0.Ĭomputer Configuration -> Policies -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> LocalPolicies -> Security Windows Server 2008 will default to SMB 2.0. Since you have Server 2008 and OS X 10.4.11, my guess is Server 2008 is asking for a higher level of security than 10.4.11 supports. Also, I haven't had any issues accessing Windows servers in Lion or Mountain Lion so I wouldn't put too much stock in that route either. Once we have this information I would suggest making a sticky out of it, it may be useful to those reviving old Macs in the future.Eric specifically said the client is 10.4.11, so everything posted by Galen about Lion and Mountain Lion can be ignored. 10.2 & 10.3: Click 'Open as Log File' in the 'Installed Updates' tab of the 'Software Update' preference pane (screenshots 7 & 8 below).10.1: Click 'Show Log' in the 'Software Update' preference pane (screenshot 6 below).9.2: Select 'Display Log' from the 'Update' menu in 'Software Update' (screenshots 3 - 5 below).If you have, could you please post screenshot(s) like the ones I've attached for 10.4? You can also get the log file in some cases, for each OS it's a little different: I've downloaded everything from, my next step is to find out which of those updates to install, and in what order.ĭoes anyone have a machine that they installed one (or more) of these OSs on, that they then updated as far as possible, solely via Software Update, before 23rd July 2012? While I was able to update 10.4 with Software Update (screenshots 1 & 2 below), Apple ended such support for all previous systems back in July of last year. I recently split the 32GB SSD in my iBook G3 into five partitions, have installed the following operating systems: Megasad macrumors memberSoftware Updates for Mac OS X 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3
