Stan, we are using the OFED OpenSM on a linux host. I need to get some more info it seems from the person on the workstation. Have you ever seen a problem running this combination on a MAC Pro. I am wondering if there is a problem with the EFI 2.0 BIOS and enumeration of all the slots. I have this problem somewhat on another machine, but it is not using an IB card. 
 
Also, the HCA is a mellanox card, and I will post the details as soon as I recieve them.

Greetings,
   I routinely run WinOF r1.0.1 on Windows Server 2003 (x64) R2 + SP2 with IPoIB, WSD & DAPL all working fine; subnet manager runs from a Linux box; my choice of simple convenience.
 
Where is your subnet manager (SM) running?
 
Check My computer->Manage->Services & Applications -> Services -> InfiniBand Subnet Manager.
 
If you desire to run the SM locally, enable startup type & start the service.
 
stan.

I am involved in a project that is trying to get Windows 2003 R2 with SP2. Apparently we can see the HCA in windows, but we are not connecting to the fabric and passing traffic. The installer seems to complete fine. Does anyone have any insight on where to look, and is this actually supported.
