It's still a Domain Controller, so by default it still has SMB signing enabled by default. I've had no issues with the Macs I have in my supported networks connecting to SBS 2008 boxes.

Sounds like the indexer might be hitting a quota limit. When you create an AFP volume, it has a default limit of 2GB, and you have to go back into the Volume settings on the server after you have created the volume to modify the default quota. Note that this is a separate quota from the NTFS quota. HTH... Charles -

That key is the one that is modified by the Microsoft network client: Digitally sign communications (always) GP element. KB916846 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/916846) details the match between the GP elements and their respective registry keys.

For Phase 2, did you also need to set the requiresecuritysignature registry entry on the SBS server? I'm using Server 2003 R2 and I had to make this change in order to use the shares.
