ValereGParticipantHi,
Found a solution:
On the 10.6.8 Server, just change the automount option for the network home directories from AFP to NFS.
Reboot both server and clients.
Worked for me.V.G

But duti doesn’t work for the same reasons: the lsregister process (and xpchelper, and so…) starts before the kernel “afp_vfs afpfs_mount” process. So it can’t find the network home account and can’t read the user’s preferences.
And I cannot find the way to make kernel mount afp home earlier or to make lsregister start later…
At this point, I seriously consider downgrading the workstations to Snow Leo — fortunately I’ve kept all TM Backups.
Hope Apple will fix that ridiculous problem soon.November 13, 2011 at 4:56 pm in reply to: File associations (always open with) are constantly reverted #381395ValereGParticipantDamn it!
Worked once, twice, but the problem’s back after the third reboot!
Tired.
Let’s find another trick.November 13, 2011 at 12:58 pm in reply to: File associations (always open with) are constantly reverted #381393ValereGParticipantOK. Found some kind of solution :
On every Lion Workstation, delete the content of /Library/Managed Preferences ->
sudo rm -Rvf /Library/Managed Preferences/*
Reboot
/Library/Managed Preferences’ network users subfolders are recreated with correct parameters when a network user logs in.
File associations are correctly read by LSRegister (no more error messages in Console).Hope it helps.
November 11, 2011 at 5:29 pm in reply to: File associations (always open with) are constantly reverted #381391ValereGParticipantThere are messages like this one in system.log on the Workstations:
“computer-name lsregister[971]: CFPreferences: user home directory at file://localhost/Network/Servers/my-server.com/nethome/username/ is unavailable. User domains will be volatile.”
But the user can log in and much of his preferences are normally read.It looks like LSRegister cannot access to the file.
Keeping searching…

Same problem with 10.7.2 Workstations and 10.7.2 Server.
I’ve tried to create alias for Network Homes in /Users (ln -s /Network/Servers/my-server.com/nethome/username), but the problem remains.
I’ve tried to create the “nethome” folder on the root of the Workstations and to edit the NFSHomeDirectory, the problems remains.Please, let me know if you find a solution (or at least an explication).
PS : Excuse my frenglish.
