[Fed-Talk] Re: Army AD and Macs: Not??

Title: Re: Army AD and Macs: Not??

KC>Apple needs to formally engage the CIO-G6s (DoD and Army, for example) and get an official
KC>position and  eliminate the rumors and local interpretations

I think they are trying - On 11/15, in response to my original message about this issue,
Dave Hale (apple.com) said:

"We are meeting with a senior representative from US Army Enterprise System Technical Activity (ESTA) this week to discuss CAC support for Entourage as well as the 2 AD issues - support for NTLMv2 (coming in Tiger) and SMB signing (not planned but based on feedback from customers will be escalated within Apple)."


The really odd part is the several Unix servers here will be allowed to remain connected to the network.  But the Macs will have their wires disconnected.  Go figure.

Perhaps we could do some collective support as well, rather than all of us working through these issues individually. For example, once the NTLM authentication issue booted many of us off windows networks, it would have been useful to find specific solutions posted to the list. . .something beyond "AdmitMac is supposed to work". . .

If apple is truly concerned about apple desktops in the DoD community, and is interested in helping growth (or merely maintaining the scant current

presence) then perhaps some solutions could be researched, documented and posted, thus saving us the time of figuring them out individually.

Apple needs to formally engage the CIO-G6s (DoD and Army, for example) and get an official position and  eliminate the rumors and local interpretations. We all know the local DOIMs are not particularly interested in supporting Macs. . .it would help us if we could come to them with solutions that work. . .detailed, proven solutions that save them and us time and energy. If the answer is "use virtual PC for everything" so be it, but let's get an official position.
