Re: DNS woes

Hi Erin --

Just wondering: are you sure you need to NetBoot to get the
functionality you want? There's no reason that you can't host the user
accounts on your server, while allowing the G5s to boot Mac OS X from
their local hard drives. (This will also speed things up a lot,
especially first thing in the morning when everyone starts up at the
same time...)

I don't have a lot of experience with remote user accounts but I'm
sure someone on the list can supplement. NetBooting would be more
appropriate for a lab configuration where you need to be sure that all
your software is in sync.
