I just saw something funky on Jaguar Server. I thought I could hit up the
list to see if anyone had an idea. For some reason after a reboot Apple
Remote desktop does not come up. I then use the function from the admin tool
to update software. I do this and it works fine. Then ARD lets me back in.
Users that have been on this machine all come up as not there. For instance,
accounts that were there are unusable unless you create them or run an
installer for what ever sw that recreates the user. I don't get it. I look
in net info manager under groups/admin I see the names that the terminal
says don¹t exist. Any idea why? Repairing permissions makes no changes. When
trying to open the accounts preference panel it crashes.
Any ideas on how to patch this?
Only thought I had was to take a clean install of jaguar server on another
machine and copy the netinfo db from it to the bad machine. Someone told me
that I'd have to be in single user mode? Is it possible to replace it? Maybe
move it elsewhere on the drive, put mine in there and then reboot and after
reboot trash the original? I am for any ideas. I am trying VERY hard to NOT
reinstall.
The way this happened is I was simply adding a user to be logged in to run
EIMS rather than using sendmail. I created it under the accounts preference
pane. It worked fine until reboot. Then the crap hit the fan and all has
been hell since. If I open the accounts preference pane it crashes
instantly. I am at a loss!
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks
Steffan
