Once again, "...The home folder for this user account is located on
an AFP or SMB server. ..."
I setup an Xserve (xserve1.lokal.cunde.de) with 10.4.6 as Open
Directory Master and OpenDirectory accounts.
1.)I checked that the IP points to the FQDN and FQDN points to IP
(running my own DNS).
xserve1:~ adminloc$ host xserve1
xserve1.lokal.cunde.de has address 192.168.53.3
xserve1:~ adminloc$ host xserve1.lokal.cunde.de
xserve1.lokal.cunde.de has address 192.168.53.3
xserve1:~ adminloc$ host 192.168.53.3
3.53.168.192.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer xserve1.lokal.cunde.de.
2.)I setup the clients to use DHCP config for LDAP configuration.
DHCP-server is setup with a searchbase
"dc=xserve1,dc=lokal,dc=cunde,dc=de" and servername
"xserve1.lokal.cunde.de"
3.)I checked that /Users is setup as an automount-share.
4.)I setup OpenDir with a searchbase of
"dc=xserve1,dc=lokal,dc=cunde,dc=de"
5.)the home is setup with URL "afp://xserve1.lokal.cunde.de/Users"
and path "usershortname" and private "/Network/Servers/
xserve1.lokal.cunde.de/Users/usershortname"
AFAIK the authorisation of a user works, but the HomeDir fails to
mount, but why (see log)?
When I setup a test user with private "/Users/usershortname" it works
but a new home is created on the client. Looks like authorisation
works, but auto-mounting fails. On the client the path "/Network/
Servers" exists and every contained folder is dynamically created
(AFAIK).
