Hi folks,
I know nothing about Macs or OS X.
We use an NT-style domain emulated by SAMBA.
I have one person who uses his personal Mac laptop here at work (due to his
need to do graphics work). He would like to have access to a mapped drive
on our domain in order to directly share files with co-workers.
The only way I can see to grant him access to the mapped drive is for him
to join the domain. If it's possible, I assume this will require setting up
a separate domain-user profile on the Mac (we don't use roaming profiles).
Or, if there is another way for him to access the mapped drive without
joining the domain, that would be adequate. Perhaps there's a way for him
to access our RDP server and get onto a desktop that would have domain
access? As far as I know, I can only grant access to the RDP server to
domain accounts though.
Probably running a Windows OS on a virtual machine on the Mac is not an
option for this guy.
Dropbox for file sharing is of course the fall-back option, but I would
prefer to grant access to the mapped drive on the network if possible.
Thanks.
