    I’m thinking of upgrading our clients to Tiger and leaving our server at 10.3 for a while. We use networked home directories over AFP.

    Anyone who has tried this mind giving some feedback?

    Thanks!

    SO far it seems like a disaster! Everything is SLOW!!!! I have heard from our local Apple sales rep (I work in education) that people have been experiencing this same phenomenon. To be honest it has basically become unusable! Luckily school is almost over.

    i find 10.4 network users work fine, but users that don’t have network homes on the server are having all sorts of weird problems.

    Hi there..
    here my first post.
    We just got 3 new dual 2Ghz G5’s with 10.4 pre-installed. I used system-migrator to get the old account on those macs. Everything, well almost everything, works fine. However, connecting to our 10.3 server and scrolling through a folder causes a spinning beachball for about 5-10 minutes. After talking to Apple techsupport it appears that it has nothing to do with the server….hooking up 2 G5’s and sharing ON gives the same result. The only way to avoid this problem is booting in “safe mode”… so it appears there is an extension causing problems: i have no clue which one .

    Greetings,

    MacB, Netherlands.
