i am booting from CD to dos and trying to connect to a 2003 server in AD. i
authenticate to the network just fine but when i try and map a drive, i get
access denied, like there is some kind of security setting on the server (or
in AD) preventing me from doing so.

Have you checked the security and system logs on the server? See if there is
an error being generated there (you should see something like "User access
denied" and a reason below it.

You should try to disable SMB signing.
In Domain policy, Domain Controllers policy or server's local policy,
disable:
- Digitally encrypt or sign secure channel data (always)
- Digitally sign communications (always)
