Symantec Antivirus 9.0 breaks services for Macintosh


Product

 

Macintosh

Platform

 

Macintosh OS

Operating system

 

Macintosh OS 9.x


    Symptoms

     

    After entering your password to mount an AppleShare volume on a Mac OS 9.x client, the Chooser hangs, and eventually crashes with a "Connection unexpectedly broken" error when connecting to a Windows 2000 Server with Symantec AV v9.0.


    Cause

     

    Symantec Antivirus v9.0 when installed with Antivirus Email Tools Enabled (selected by default) SAV will conflict with SFM on the Windows 2000 Server.


    Solution

     

    Uninstall Symantec Antivirus and install it again with Antivirus Email Tools set to Unchecked. It is recommended that the customer follow the SAV Install Guideline.
