I upgraded our xServe from 10.3.8 to 10.4.5. I exported the users and groups before the upgrade (as per the migration manual) and then imported them. In the process I changed our IP and Domain Name. The home folders stayed in the same partitions. The home directories are listed as being
afp://tiger.olddomain.org/StudentAccounts
/Network/Servers/tiger.olddomain.org/Volumes/Students/StudentAccounts/amandaboc
They should be
afp://tiger.newdomain.org/StudentAccounts
/Network/Servers/tiger.newdomain.org/Volumes/Students/StudentAccounts/amandaboc
I even tried making a new folder in WGM with sharing and netmount then ditto the user folder to the new location.
The students log in, but left side locations are not available (click on home or document folder and not avialable). They can click on the network connection and manually log in to their folder by navigating to it.
That method is way too hard for 1st and 2nd graders. Does anyone have a good idea? I CCC the drive before I started, so could go back and start again.
TIA

Joel,
Thanks for the quick reply it worked great. However, the actual file to be deleted was named slightly different from yours. I deleted
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist . I didn’t have to copy the files at all either. On a somewhat different note, what do you recommed for folder permissions/ownership on student home folders?
Thanks again. This site has saved me countless times. 😀
