    I have an Open Directory server configured with 4 interfaces as follows:

    en0 192.168.114.6 vlan 114
    vlan0 192.168.115.6 vlan 115
    vlan1 192.168.121.6 vlan 121
    vlan2 192.168.201.6 vlan 201

    I have DNS records configured in each subnet pointing to their local interface. So student1.ourdomain.us resolves to the ip appropriate to the subnet. The client machines in each subnet are configured to connect to the ip present on their subnet. I can ping all of these ip’s from any of our subnets. I can connect to afp shares by these ip’s.

    As I understand it, OD binds to the first interface present in the network config. Is it possible to make OD bind to all these interfaces? What about Kerberos, can it bind to these interfaces?

    We are a small school corporation and all our routing is handled by a router on a stick. The router is becoming a serious bottle neck on the network. This could help combat some of the congestion…if it is possible.

    Good to know…One minor problem. I already have the server configured with about 1400 students and 60 groups. Can LDAP be edited to reflect the additional interfaces? It was only recently that the idea came to me.
