-35 errors when trying to log on to server

I have only seen this error on Intel Macs. Sometimes you can successfully login, but other times you get a -35 error. Once you get this error it never seems to go away. Even a restart doesn't fix it. I have only seen this when I tried to login to a Windows 2003 server that was running Services for Macintosh (SFM). I could login to a server that was running Windows 2003, but was using Extremez-IP.

I can't take credit for this fix as I found it via the Apple Discussion boards, but it does work.

Open terminal and navigate to

~/Library/Preferences

then type rm .GlobalPreferences.plist

then navigate to

/Library/Preferences

then type rm .GlobalPreferences.plist

be very careful with rm it can remove a lot of files if you get it wrong. After doing this I was able to login into a server no problem. You can't do this from the finder as the files are invisible.

As it turns out this does fix it, but I had to redo it again after installing 10.4.8. I am as yet unsure if it was the update or the reboot that messed it up. Hopefully I will be able to update this later and let you know.
