I may be missing the obvious... this may not be relevant at all to your situation In the past I was able to get an Open Directory server to act as the auth mechnism for linux and os x machines. The Linux machines were using pam to auth against the OD server and the OS X used the OD for auth as well. I used the dscl to set the homedir path The home directories were on a 3rd Linux machine, I used the dscl to set the homedir path for the os x and the linux machines. I was then able to use pam auth for SVN, ssh, webdav,.... for all the clients. It should be straight forward. Get pam auth working for the OS X clients and map the appropriate path for home dirs in the ldap server. Hi. I'm currently integrating 10 iMacs in an existing Linux computer pool for our students at the University of Konstanz. There we have an LDAP Server for authentication, no AD, no NFS/AFP. Authentication on OS X with LDAP works fine but I have a little problem with the homedirectories. Our sysadmins want me to mount the users home dir via sshfs to the mac. So far, no problem. Sshfs works on OS X. But we need to mount the homedir at login time (with the password). This email sent to ben@cogs.com This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
