Brief History
Our school has about 100 OSX machines
After months of trying to get them to work in AD I gave up and ordered an Xserver.
We have 1 OSX server, that I want to use WGM to manage the Mac clients like I use group policy to do on the PCs
Windows 2000 AD, DNS is fine (forward/reverse for all servers)
I have home drives already setup for my users in AD.
what I have done
I followed the AD/OD Integration guide (very helpfull)
Created an OD master
Joined the server to the AD
Now I want to use WMG to manage all of the Macs
I joined one of the Macs to the OD, it was already part of the AD
I tried to setup prefs for a user and the computer name but none of my settings are taking place when I log on, I do not get any errors.
In WGM I authenticate to AD and the local 127.0.0.1
created a group, added my test AD account and set some prefs
Then I added a computer list, I used the name and it was able to reslove the MAC address, set different prefs.
When I log on using that Mac and username none of prefs are getting applied.
I am new to OSX, our PTA wanted us to be dual platform, where can I check logs to see why these prefs are not getting pushed down?
Thanks
