Hi All,<br />
<br />
We have a Windows 2012R2 Standard server which is a domain controller / file server working in a windows network all great. However the client wants to look at getting a Mac and adding it to the network so it can access the network shares.<br />
<br />
To do this natively i hear it is a bit of a pain and performance can be pretty bad? Specifically when accessing a share on a 2012R2 Server.<br />
<br />
I have come across Acronis Access Connect which looks pretty good but can anyone recommend any alternatives?<br />
<br />
Thanks
