Since we're talking about Directory, does anyone know where to find
some
good documentation on this nifty little app?
Not really. I've spent about 25 hours this week trying to work out
various things about 10.5 Server and finding annoying holes in the
documentation. It has been a little frustrating because the services
offered appear to be wonderful, but I kept missing the vital two
sentences on how to do something. I've made more notes about Open
Directory and iCal and the new collaboration features than I did on
the whole of 10.4 and 10.3.
It's interesting to see that OD bound clients can add groups which
show up
as normal groups in WGM. This is for non-administrative client
connections
too. Seems like some kind of security hole, but then I don't have a
wealth
of info on Directory.
You have to authenticate with Directory, and although it doesn't say
so anywhere, it can tell the difference between someone who has just
the privileges to change their own record, and someone with
administration privileges.
PS: Thanks to Josh for answering my question.
