Week in brief

macOS SSO Kerberos guidance now requires a lowercase cifs identifier URI

The week’s meaningful Entra changes center on a macOS configuration constraint and an updated SAP IAG status label. Administrators configuring macOS SMB mounting should use the exact lowercase `cifs` identifier URI; the SAP IAG integration page now omits “(Preview)” from its title and heading.

For Entra administrators
