Does anyone know where I can find the UAM for Mac OS X. Can't find it anywhere on Mactopia. It appears Microsoft is abandoning it.

If you mean Universal Access Management, it is supposed to be implemented in
Java, so it may work on the Mac. But you will have to go to the vendor to be
sure. In any case it has nothing to do with Microsoft Office.

It was listed on Mactopia before but the new download section has
apparently forgotten quite a few things.
I found it on versiontracker.
Here is the direct download link:

What's a UAM?

It's the User Authentication Module for File Services for Macintosh
running on Windows file servers.

Passwords between Macs and File Services for Macintosh use to be sent in
the clear. The UAM would encrypt passwords. It also allowed the user to
give himself a password longer than eight characters and to receive
notices that his password was about to expire.

The UAM only worked with PowerPC Macs (non-Intel Macs) and was
incorporated into Mac OS X around Mac OS X 10.4.6.

The more you know... =======<^> :)

The Microsoft UAM will not help with AppleTalk issues. It's only useful
for PowerPC Macs with Mac OS X 10.4.5 or older and only if you're
running Windows Server's File Services for Macintosh.

All links that I use to have for downloading the UAM are now broken and
searching their website turns up nothing now. I suspect Microsoft no
longer supports it.
