Tiger PHDs



Thought I'd try throwing this out again: I'm having problems with Portable
Home Directories under Tiger 10.4.2. Clients are logging in using
Active Directory accounts, and mount a network user share via AFP
(shared from Windows Server 2003 using the latest version of
ExtremeZ-IP).

For most clients, everything works fine. For new accounts created
after we rolled out Tiger, attempts to set up users with Portable Home
Directories results in a truncated user folder being set up (Desktop
and Library only). Also, a user keychain will not function, and
resetting/repairing/replacing the login.keychain has no effect.

- What template does Tiger populate the user folder for PHD's from?

- What could cause keychain failures for a specific user (local and
other network users have keychains that work fine) on a machine?

I've tried copying the user's known good keychain into the appropriate
(~/Library/Keychains) location, I checked permissions on the files to
make sure they matched known working installations, I've tried to
remove the recreate the keychain using Keychain First Aid, but
applications that try to access the keychain still report "a Keychain
can't be accessed," and give the option recreate the keychain
environment. Even running through the "rebuild the keychain setup"
steps has no effect.

I'd be happy to hear what other Tiger Server admins have experienced,
or any suggestions on resources for more information.

Thanks - 
Daniel Eran
