Re: Mobile account stops synchronizing



Hi guys,

Has anyone managed to solve this problem yet? I've got a 10.5.2 client being
managed by a 10.4.11 server and I experience the same problem. It syncs
perfectly once and then the next time they user logs in, it decides not to,
although I can see the "Checking" progress bar and the "Finishing Sync"
message, nothing is actually synced.

This occurs for all users on this machine.

Regards,

KC
