Open Directory - Network Home Login Issues



covering all basics..
DNS etc etc is all kosher..
1 ODMaster + 4 Replicas
over 1000 clients in Directory

setup has been working fine for over a year now serving up user info for 10.2.x-10.4.x clients.

all of the sudden a few clients stopped being able to log in.

Nothing about not finding the AFP share or homedirectory or anything.. login window just shakes.. (usually an authentication problem eh?)

logged in via local user and can connect to AFP share of network user OK.
Can ssh to server and even get a Krb ticket via kinit from terminal for Network user.

90% of the clients can login just fine. Most of the ones having the problem seem to be 10.3.9 machines.

on the server that these clients would be authenticating against (happens to be the OD master)
only thing I happen to see in the logfiles that might indicate a relevant problem...

a bunch of (in PasswordService logs)
LaunchTaskWithIO path =/usr/sbin/kdb5_util, arg1 = dump, arg2 = -, status = 1

also it seems that replicas seem to be constantly wanting to update the records..
a bunch of Sync processes keep repeating over and over..

nothing really in the krb or opendirectory logs...

System works fine for most users still...

quadruple checked config in Directory Access on affected machines, and have starting banging head on the wall..

On the client machines, only log that really seems to give up any info related to login attempts are in secure.log, but only message seems act like it's a bad password.

any ideas? something else I could check? more info I could provide for assistance?


thanks for any help.
