Hi Folks,

We don't support MAC 10.5 in any way at this time.

There is no plan to add MAC 10.5 support in a 3.2.0.5 patch and no date
specified for a 3.2.0.5 patch.

Development has the action item to figure out how we can support 10.5
with the smb issues.  We may have to implement a work-around for short
the term support of MAC 10.5 before we can make all the necessary code
changes to support MAC 10.5.x.

We don't have an ETA from Development because they are trying to find a
way to implement a proper work-around.=20

I wish we had better news, hoping to nail the work-around and get an ETA
soon.

Thanks,
Brian
