Hi Nicolas,
Thanks for posting here! Also thanks for Erip and William's input. Your
information is useful!
What is more, I would also like to give some information about the issue.
===================
To connect MAC OSX computers to SBS 2003 network, I suggest you install the
Services for Macintosh on SBS 2003 server to provide file and printer
services to the MAC clients. To install Services for Macintosh, you can
open Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel and open Add/Remove Windows
Components. You can take a look at the following artilce which mentions
Print Services for Macintosh however also applies to File Services:
323421 HOW TO: Install Print Services for Macintosh and Print Services for
UNIX
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=323421
===================
And the following article should be useful to you to setup Macintosh
clients in SBS network:
http://pentechcom.com/sbsdocblog/sbs_mac_beta.doc
===================
You may encounter problems in connecting MAC Clients to SBS 2003 and if so
you need to download the latest version of UAM from the following page and
install it on the MAC clients:

See: 834498 Macintosh client cannot connect to Services for Mac on Windows
Server

try to

===================
Just for reference:
If you want to connect to Exchange on the MAC clients, you can use
Entourage. For more information regarding Entourage, you can refer to the
following page:
http://search.microsoft.com/search/results.aspx?st=b&qu=Outlook+for+Macintos
h&view=en-us
Regarding how to configure Entourage to connect to Exchange, you can refer
to Entourage''s help files. You can also have a look at the following
articles:
272325 ENTX: How to Set up an IMAP E-mail Account in Entourage
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=272325
271643 ENT2001: How to Use Entourage in an Exchange Environment
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=271643
For most popular problem with Entourage against Exchange, see:
824887 You Receive Error Messages When You Try to Open a Microsoft Exchange
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=824887
We also release an update for Entourage X and you can download and install
it when you install Entourage:

ac9f-d5d2fba70eac&displaylang=en
Hope this helps! I appreciate you time and effort. I am currently
standing by for you about the test result. I am always happy to be of
further assistance.
Have a nice day!
Best Regards,
Jenny Wu
