    I am working on setting up Active Directory and Open Directory as outlined in the article posted here. Everything was working great. So far I can log in to the AD server, and mount my home directory. Works like a charm. I then tried to add the OD to Dir Services on the client. Everything still works fine, but I never get a managed enviroment. I have tried managing both the computer and the user I am logging in as. The AD user is part of an OD group that is managed. I am getting all my users in Workgroup Manager from AD, so that part is working OK.

    The only hint I have is an error in Console:
    Aug 7 15:17:44 Student-Test DirectoryService[47]: DSLDAPv3PlugIn: Required Policies not Supported: No ClearText. LDAP Connection for Node alpha.hdnet.net denied.
    Aug 7 15:17:44 Student-Test DirectoryService[47]: DSLDAPv3PlugIn: Policy Violation. Disabled future attempts to bind to [10.0.2.14] for 1 hour.

    Thanks for any help you can offer!

    Are you using trusted binding to bind the client to the ODM?

    I found the issue. The server by default was not set to “disable clear text passwords”, and the client AD plugin was set to disable clear text passwords. I found they had to match, and set them both to not disable clear text passwords. Hope that helps someoen in the future.

    In my experience, “disable clear text passwords” is enabled by default for all clients, and I’ve only seen the “DSLDAPv3PlugIn: Required Policies not Supported: No ClearText. LDAP Connection for Node xx.yy.zz denied.” message if using trusted binding.

    I just had problems binding a 10.4.8 client to a 10.4.7 server. I was getting the clear text error in my client’s system.log. A manual bind fixed it, and within seconds I saw this in my /var/log/system.log:

    Oct 13 13:37:51 administrators-imac-g5 mDNSResponder: Service “Administrator’s iMac G5._sftp-ssh._tcp.local.” renamed to “Lab 10”
    Oct 13 13:37:51 administrators-imac-g5 mDNSResponder: Service “Administrator’s iMac G5._ssh._tcp.local.” renamed to “Lab 10”

    Neat. 🙂
