    We have all our accounts coming from AD, and managed by OD. Our home folders are mounted from a Windows 200 server.
    All built in apps in Tiger seem fine, but we have all sorts of problems with 3rd part stuff with the network homes.

    MS Word says that it is out of disk space, or file in use when saving to network home, Indesign has problems with opening and saving, and Quark quite often crashes on launch! When not using the home folder, everything seems fine.

    anybody else have problems with homes from an SMB share?

    I simply copied every single non-sensitive file (e.g. administrator’s login.keychain and customized dock prferences) from the home directory of the administrator that originally installed the apps to the user template….

    This makes in some what tiresome to create the user home directories on the Xserve serving these, however, the side effect is that there seem to be no problems with the apps in question, InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop run just fine and Word seems to forget about its problems as well…

    Though hardly ideal, it does make the setup usable.
