Or if you need a free solution you can enable File Services for
Macintosh on the server. I recommend this only if you have several Mac
clients. Dave will remove the administrative overhead from the server
and place the responsibility of the connection on the Mac.
The hidden files you are seeing are caused only by Macs connecting to
Windows servers using SMB. File Services for Macintosh will allow the
Mac to connect via AFP and will keep from splitting the Mac's files into
two parts.
Hope this helps! bill
