Dan,
I just set up 7 iBooks yesterday and they worked perfectly. Setting
up LDAP in Directory Access in 10.4 was a snap, it creates the custom
path automatically. You should log in as admin to set it up in the
first place anyway but then it should work fine. I didn't do anything
to the server but the standard software updates. I do have this
10.3.9 server set up as the DNS, DHCP, OD and AFP server as we have a
fairly small setup. I also only manage a few things, the login
window, the dock, several application limits and a couple automounts.
So in other words 10.4 works fine with 10.3 in a basic homogenous
environment. This may serve as a good control for anyone else having
log in problems with outside DNS or LDAP services. I never got the
blue screen, that has been discussed a lot lately. Someone said to
zap the PRAM.
Good luck,
Ed Crelin

Do you have to do anything special to get 10.4.2 client to work
with 10.3.9 server?
When binding the client to the server I get all kinds of errors in
the log on the client saying it pretty much can't connect to the
ldap server? If I enter an admin credentials in the ldap plugin on
the client it seems to work ok. I didn't have to do this with
10.3.x clients do you have too with 10.4 clients?
Our 10.4.x testing clients hang right before showing the login
window and shoot to a blue screen with a spinning gear! Can't
figure out why, seems like the 10.4 clients can't bind to 10.3.9
server!
I did follow the Apple kbase to slap the ldap database on the
server for the 10.3.9 update so thats not it! Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dan Ball
