Interesting.
I too have been seeing Authentication issues - this time in Finder,
connecting to SMB shares.
Finder used to accept "username@domain" as the username when connecting to
an SMB Share in a windows domain, but now it will only accept
"domain\username" as the username.

I wonder if that’s related to what you are seein?

Hi,
With MacOS 10.5.7 I am trying to connect to a SMB server (Win2003) as
User: Wärner

The attempt using the finder's Connect to server...
Results in : You have entered an invalid Username or Password ....

In Terminal I tried:  mount_smbfs "//Wärner@SERVER/Public" /Volumes/Public
Result: URL parsing failed, please correct the URL and try again: Invalid
argument

I know I can escape spaces in usernames with   so i tried : mount_smbfs
"//W�rner@SERVER/Public" /Volumes/Public
Result: mount_smbfs: server rejected the connection: Authentication error

Any idea how I can mount a share when the user? Would it make sense to try
native APIs?

Thanx
Arfst
