Hi Daniel!
Once the UAM is installed on the Macs, you can disable the Guest account,
which you should do anyway for security's sake. The UAM will allow the Macs
to access the server using Microsoft authentication, which is what you're
probably after by installing it in the first place.
To avoid this problem as you go, you may just want to burn the UAM to a CD
and install it on the Macs from there or put it in a shared email folder.
Hope this helps! bill
