I hope somebody can help, Im going mad here. I lot of people are relying on me getting managed AD users the macs here, but I jsut keep running into problems, even though I have read up on just about everything I can!
I have fudged together some sort of half working setup, here is what I have done.
xserve setup as OD Master.
Clients bound to both AD and OD
Changed the KerberosClient Recordname on the xserve.
Installed Admin Tools on a client and logged in locally. I then use WM to connect to 127.0.0.1 using local username. I then can browse the OD LDAP and create a usergroup and setup preffs. I can then fill the groups with AD users from the pull out usr/groups draw.
As I say, this works, but its not great. For a start, I need to authenticate 3 times in WM, once when loading it using local user, then with OD username, then with a AD username! Also WM tends to crash a lot doing this, or sometimes come up with essages saying it cant browse one of the domains, or sometimes just doesnt show any AD users. Always it is very slow when trying to do anything with AD.
The next problem I: have is setting up a disc quota for the user groups. I cant do this in AD as the homes on on the xraid, and I cant do it in WM as it doesnt have the right mappings.
Im I doing all this right?
I really am a beginer and Im so lost!
