Has anyone tried to configure a NetBoot image so that it could use
Active Directory accounts? I can’t seem to find any documentation
on how this could be done.
The tricky thing here is the machine account.
Two options:
1. bind the machine and then image. Use dsconfigad to change the
password change time to something very very long. All machines will
use the same machine account. If any one of them changes it... all the
others will stop working.
2. Image the machine unbound. Have a launchd item to bind after boot.
Each machine uses it's own machine account. However, you'll probably
have a boatload of orphaned accounts after doing this for a while.
Plus on first boot you'll have a bit of a delay as the machine binds
to AD before the users can login. This might not be noticeable.
