Workgroup Manager problems



Sometimes I use Workgroup Manager from my laptop to manage user memberships on my OD server in a golden triangle setup (AD/OD).  Nothing fancy, just adding/removing a user occasionally.  First off, is there any reason why this is a bad idea?  I was under the impression the connection was encrypted.  The connection is only used on an internal network or via VPN.

Second, the majority of the time, I can't connect.  The first try it errors out with an error -14090 & in Console it shows as:

3/10/11 4:02:25 PM	[0x0-0x39039].com.apple.WorkgroupManager[68415]	dsOpenDirServiceProxy returned an error of type -14090

Any subsequent connections just fail outright.  I have to killall -HUP DirectoryService to get it working again, and it *seems* like I have to initiate a connection from Workgroup Manager on the server itself before I can get my laptop to connect.  It finally does, but this repeats on a regular basis.  Just wondering if anyone has any insight to this.  Server Admin tools on laptop & server are both the latest, server & laptop both running 10.6.6.  I'm using the FQDN in the address of WGM, & I've tried a local admin account, the diradmin account, & my AD account, all of which have admin privs on the server.

I have a Leopard server (latest updates) set up in the same config that does not seem to be affected by this problem.

My initial impression is that OD is crashing, or some component related to OD &/or it's connection via WGM is crashing.

The only thing I can see in the system logs relevant to WGM getting denied is:

3/10/11 4:03:00 PM	servermgrd[116]	Failed login attempt from IP 192.168.1.100, user Administrator
3/10/11 4:03:00 PM	Workgroup Manager[68382]	void -[LoginController gotServerError:forTransaction:](LoginController*, objc_selector*, objc_object*, XSAdminTransaction*): got error kGotAuthenticationFailure from request (null)

Any help or ideas appreciated.

Chris
