Re: Local user accounts and computer lists

Quoting "Andrea \XFox\ Govoni" <email@hidden>:

Hi,
I'm working on a server with Mac OS X Server 10.4.7 configured as Open
Directory Master and some clients with Mac OS X 10.4.7.
I'm reading Apple's "User Management" PDF [1].
Section "Using Local User Accounts" on page 98 explains how to manage
preferences for clients' local user accounts and on the next page there
is a step-based task that should teach you how to accomplish it.
It says:


Andrea:

Local users will be offered the opportunity to log in as a member of a group you have on the server. In a setting where security is a concern, this would not be a good choice, but if you had no security concerns, it may be useful to have certain users be able to join different groups for different purposes. Maybe your users usually log in locally, but you want to offer them network logins/resources if they need them and fully understand the difference.
If you're strictly going to be in a LDAP user environment, just ignore it all.

Jeff
