Hi all,

I have been combatting this issue for some time now. For a while I could change the user from OD to Crypt and then back to OD to fix the problem. Mind you, we had users changed from OD to Crypt at random times as well!
Now I am unable to change users at all. I always get the same error message. Once I was able to get the OD record fixed for a user by switching back and forth between OD and Crypt password, but today no longer.

Then I tried the following: loggin in to Workgroup Manager as root.

SUCCESS!!

I don’t know what the ramifications are of logging in as root for the rest of the system, but at least I can add and change users.

Note to Apple: you are fast becoming another Micro$oft. We are running a school with limited budget. I cannot upgrade to the newest OS every 2 years, so keep providing support for the older OS’s!
