I have a Win 2000 server sp3, with apple talk running. There are 15
Mac clients that access 10 shares on this server. When I reboot, at
first the clients can only see one or two shares (I get no error
mesages), and it could take upto 40 minutes to see all the shares.
Some times I need to reboot again because one share just refuses to
show up.

Are there better ways to connect Mac to Windows Server, I was told to
try PC Maclan - is it any good?

Any help is appreciated.
