Can’t create, delete or edit users in /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 via WGM

[bentoms]

Hi guys,

I have followed Mike Bombiches guide to ‘Leveraging AD on Mac OSX.’ All was fine yesterday…

But today I cannot create, delete or edit users in the OD Directory. The New User/Group etc.. icons are greyed out… And yes I am authenticated…

Any ideas?

I’ve run into the exact same problem on a client’s server. The difference between your situation and mine, is that in my case, AD is not involved.

In my situation, the machine is working fine, and all users can log in and get their network homes. For whatever reason, though, I can no longer create, edit, or delete accounts in the /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 via WGM, even when authenticated as an LDAP admin-level user. I can’t find any precipitating incident, and the logs are murky.

Xserve G5
3GB RAM
MOSXS v.10.4.8 w/all patches applied

Again, Kerberos SSO and all other services are running fine, so as you can imagine, this is driving me crazy.

Problem “solved”, or at least worked around. I ended up archiving the ODM db, etc., converting the box to stand alone, changing back to ODM, then restoring the archived data. All is now fine with the world, although I’m troubled by the fact that this happened at all.
