Are you trying to mount an ibay from Finder? 
Go -> Connect Server -> smb://ip.of.sme.server/ibayname

Are you trying to setup Entourage?

Are you trying to use Apple Mail?
I don't think you'll have any problems.  If you do, install the SME's certificate as described for Entourage.

Are you trying to use ssh to open a shell on your SME?
- click spotlight
- search for 'terminal'
- start 'terminal'
$ ssh root@ip.of.sme.svr (optionally including "-p xxxx" if you have changed the default port of SSH on your sme server)
--> note the lower case "p"

Are you trying to join your apple to your SME hosted windows domain?
<don't have any help here>
