I’m new at this but thought I read the Apple docs pretty good. When I try to autheticate via open directory the clients just shake. I ran the dscl command from the server and the clients. Once I do this on the server /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 I can see Config Groups and Users. On the clients I do the same thing except use something like 172.3.2.4 in place of 127.0.0.1. When I do a cd /LDAPv3/172.3.2.4 . Nothing is listed there. Any ideas?
