Re: Problems with Groups and Home Folders

This is the crux of the problem: if a person is in a group at all, they cannot log in on the newer machines. If any preferences are set for that group it becomes a workgroup. But setting preferences for groups don't seem to matter. I've tried this with and without preferences set -- same result.
My next experiment is to try to set preferences on a per user basis and see if that inhibits login. I'm betting it won't.
BTW, most of the responses I've gotten are saying that it's a DNS thing, not a server thing. so I'm baffled how to fix that.
Thanks for your reply.

Is this what you are experiencing: users can login if they are not part of any group;

users can login if they are part of a managed group (a workgroup)?

What happens if you manage a preference for one of the workgroups?
