Ok, I applied the combo patch for mac os x 10.5, the user rebooted, and I checked the user is getting properly authenticated on the windows 2003 server. The user still has the issue of being able to opena a file inside parallels and not able to open that same file (not at the same time, duh) in mac os x. What to try next?
