    When a mobile user links to the network , are the managed prefs syncronized only when a network connection is established with the 10.3 server, or does the mobile user continually poll the OD server to check it’s preference settings?

    I have got mine to work although I am not sure of the security implications.

    Inside the domain security options you want to enable “allow enencrypted passwords from 3rd party SMB servers”. Once I changed this setting everything started working.

    I get the same error when trying to run net rpc vampire -S servername -U Administrator%secret. This should pull the entire existing domain and dump it into the ldap directory. The best I can tell is that the library that allows smbpasswd to interact with open directory is not compiled in.

    “/etc/pdb/opendirectorysam.so undefined reference to get_opendirectory_authenticator expected to be defined in the executable Trace/BPT trap”

    I could re-compile the samba package and include the opendirectorysam.so in the smbpasswd executable, but I’m not sure exactly how Samba is configured under Panther. Any apple techs listening, I’d sure like to know.

    As with Exim, you will need to first upgrade your installation of Perl to 5.8

    I had the same problem, called Apple about it. They asked “Was the hostname setup in DNS and reverse lookup setup in DNS before you first set it to Open Directory Master.” I didn’t work at my current company at the time it was first installed so I had no idea, they assumed yes. They recomended running the same scripts that afp548 did (which I had tried before and had the same issue). Their next recommendation was a full reinstall of OS X. They said if DNS isn’t completely setup before the first time you switch it to Open Directory Master something in the Kerberos scripts will fail, and appearantly never, ever work. Some people get lucky and running the Kerberos scripts by hand works, some, like me, have to start from scratch.

    Hello Joe..

    Honestly..I’m not purely from IT background, but manage to handle it because
    really crazy about Mac.

    Our new machine will come with 3.5 TB Xserve RAID, and our Gigabit Ethernet is ready.

    1 ï There is option to partition the RAID base on quotas. But it will going for fix quota. (except for last/final partition which is adjustable).

    3 ï On Diskimage, It can be adjust by using Unix Script. ( Slowly learning for Unix ). On my opinion… Shared Diskimage is better compare to shared folder/partition. Maybe I’m wrong. It will easir to handle /adjust in future.

    4 ï How I sharing the disk image?? Actually.. I never tried it on apple server.
    I just trying it on my G5 2.0 DP + OS 10.3.4

    First, I simply create a disk image with 20 GB size on my Second HD, and then I notice 20 GB space has been taken from my HD.

    eg: 6512 Stadium.dmg and then mount it. A icon with name 6512 Stadium appear on desktop as ejectable disk. and I go for icon’s info and set the sharing. I can access 6512 Stadium as a drive from other Macs by using AppleTalk( OS X / OS 9 ).

    I had tried to copy / delete / move / save / open file from this remote drive for 15 GB files form several Macs at a same time and it just work well.

    But I cannot see / find the Mounted Diskimage from any PC / Windows.
    This make me feel little worry. I cannot triy it on real appler server since we
    dont have it YET.

    It is good if someone can try it on real apple server and share with us the result.

    I found it is very interesting…and I can’t find it in Windows Server.

    Thanks.

    ï Going to follow Joe’s steps……one server at a time

    Does anyone have any hard evidence that this check is, indeed, taking place? The reason I ask, is that I have exactly this setup for my test server and have never noticed any evidence that there is a check taking place on the network. Is there something happening that I’m not seeing?

    I had a slightly different problem. cyradm would first ask me for a password, I gueess the one associated with the ‘-u username’, which it accepted. But then it asked for “IMAP password”. What the heck is thi? I have a system of a small number of passwords, I tried all of them and nothing worked. I couldn’t find a reference to “IMAP password” anywhere.

    What I did in the end, and this may help you, was to first su to the mail admin user, then type ‘cyradm’, then “server” and the server name.
    That worked ffor mee.

    May or may not help for you, givee it a go.

    Good luck

    I want to do exactly the same thing as described here… only difference is that I only have one NIC card in my G4.

    So the setup is this:
    G4 running Mac OX 10.3.4 server with one NIC card and a USB modem. I have several other machines around the house all connected up via ethernet, which I want to share the internet connection with.

    Is this possible without a) buying another NIC card or b) buying an ethernet modem…?

    Thanks in advance.

    ……So, a couple of questions:

    1. where’d you get the cert from? This is mostly just idle curiosity.

    http://www.freessl.com/ $39 bones.

    2. What service are you trying to secure?

    Ughh….. I think I am trying to secure our web server for the domain called avalanchejam.com only. We want to have a secure form page (https://www.avalanchejam.com to encrypt a credit card form field. That’s all.

    Does anyone know a resource for the SSL basic setup something like I have described (a single domain)? Joel’s article is too advanced and covers things we don’t need.

    Mine’s running fine, but we’re still testing. I’ve seen what you describe, but I suspect it may have more to do with the browser than the server. Using Safari 1.2.2, I find reloading often forces it to refresh properly.

    I would recommend investigating the asr command – Apple has a decent tutorial documented, and it can use any HTTP or NFS server as a source for the disk image.

    Check the manpage (man asr) on any OS X system.
