Re: Portable home directory sync problem

Something you may want to think about is this. Apple recommends that you not have more then about 350-400 AFP connections at any time. With Portable Home Directory Syncing I have been running into a lot of problems where it will peg out a 2.3 GHz dual G5 Xserve with 8 GB RAM. Granted I am running over 1000 clients who authenticate randomly throughout the day. I would just highly recommend that you be very careful when you work with Portable Home Dir Syncing. The problem I am having now is there is no way to shut the syncing off so I don't get all this traffic. I have tried to manually specify syncing without any workable solutions. Anyone have a solution?

Thanks,
Jason

Hi all,

I'm having a problem getting syncing to work correctly with portable home
directories.

Server 10.4.4
Client 10.4.4

The server is the production OD/Workgroup Manager/Macintosh Manager server.
Everything works fine with network home directories.

I want to begin use OSX with Wireless laptops and know that I need to use
Portable Home Directories for it to work well.

I've setup a computer workgroup with Portable Home Directories. I have it
set to sync at log in and log out.

When I log into the laptop my documents folder syncs properly every time. It
doesn't sync at log out and it doesn't sync if I click the little "house" at
the top of the screen. I keep looking for a separate "log out sync" button
to click, but everything seems to be set at the log in/log out screen.

There must be something obvious I'm missing. If it would sync correctly at
log out I'd be able to put this into service.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Leigh
