Just as a warning...while it's not as OMGBAD as some would think, the fact
is, turning that on pretty much keeps you from all the nicer security
options in Mac OS X 10.4's Open Directory setup, and does leave them open if
someone wants to take the effort to spoof an Open Directory Master.
Considering the improved Directory Access settings for imaging, I'd really
think twice about that.
