    Hi,

    Just wondering if anyone else has ever seen this behavior: remote-updating an XServe G5 from 10.3.9 OD Master to 10.4, post install the Server Assistant attempts to complete the setup but posts the following error:

    Bad setting format
    The default setting to load does not have the correct format.

    SSH to the server is possible via the root/serialnumber PW, but nothing obviously amiss. I’m now torn between using the published LDAP/password server import procedure (and having to recreate all my shares, a pain) or reverting back to my 10.3.9 backup and living to fight another day.
