I have a user on OS 8.5 needing to access a remote OS X server 10.5.8 via AFP. The problem is not one of AFP over TCP as this was working from the OS 8.5 to a remote Win Server 2003. The problem is rather one of authentication (“The User Authentication Method required by this server cannot be found. Please check the AppleShare folder in the System Folder and try again”). I suspect that the OSX server is not permitting plaintext passwords.
1. Is there a UAM for 8.5 to permit encrypted passwords that 10.5 can handle?
2. Can com.apple.AppleFileServer.plist be changed to permit plaintext passwords?
3. Other options (besides resorting to FTP. I don’t think they could upgrade to OS 9 for some reason)?My googling was not conclusive. Any help appreciated.
