Mac clients cannot connect to Mac server after domain controller upgrade to Windows Server 2008

We recently upgraded our old, server 2003 domain controllers to new, server 2008 domain controllers. Once when I unplugged the old DC's from our network to let the new ones take over, the three Mac users we have on the network were unable to connect to their Mac server. When they try to connect, they get an error message saying that it is an invalid username and password.

I'm stuck on this because of my lack of knowledge for Mac's and don't know where to start troubleshooting the problem. Does anyone have any ideas?

The two domain controllers are Windows Server 2008. The Mac server is running OS X Server 10.4.11.  The three clients are running Mac OS X 10.6.4.

Thanks in advance.

Update:

When I go to the Workgroup Manager on the Mac Server, I get the error message:

"Unable to open the requested node. The node /Active Directory /All Domains couldn't be opened because an unexpected error of type -14002 occurred."

I hope that helps.

Thanks EdTechy! That did the trick. The clients can now access the shares on the Mac server.

Thanks again!
