Re: (no subject)

We were having the same problems last year.  Are you using network home directories?  If so there are a bunch of things that go into it.  You need an active ethernet connection and DHCP address off the bat to be able to log in.  While wired clients have this from startup, the wireless client is not getting that address until you log into a local account and give it that address.  Try going into the network preferences and specifying the wireless network name, also we got a program from our apple rep, called Refresh Automount that seemed to help.

This year we were faced with a security issue as we have a mix of Linksys and Airport base stations.  We decided to go with WPA and make every one log into a universal local account prompts for a user name and password after the log in for their share points and network homes.

Best of Luck,

I have noticed that our wireless iBOOKs are not consistently allowing
logins. That is, if I attempt to login as a student the login request
is denied. If I then login in as a local administrator, logout, and
try again as a student the login is fine.

This is one of a few strange behaviors since I (1) re-imaged the
iBOOKs,(2) installed some new Airport Base Stations, (3) upgraded to
OS X Server 10.3.9 and (4) imaged and installed both the Server HD
and Data HD onto larger disks. It does seem that those workstations
that are wired are more reliable. Yes, too many variables.


thanks
