    A few more notes.
    10.4.3 Server running on a Dual 2Ghz G5 XServe.
    This server is only running AFP, SMB, and Web.
    It is connected to an Active Directory Domain.
    Most of the clients are also connected to AD.
    Kerberous single sign on works.
    It is not hosting home directories.
    It has an XRAID connected to it.
    It has a Fiber card and a video card.

    I rebuild it from scratch just before Christmas.
    I am getting the Disabled/Asleep problem again. teice in the last 24 hours.

    Well I thought 10.4.3 has fixed this problem.

    Although the frequency of users showing up as “Disabled/Asleep” has gone down, it has not gone away.

    I still get the problem about once a week.

    I have the solution for you. Sorry it is not sooner but I just saw your post.

    I am going to assume your Mac OS X clients are also bound to AD. That is part of the reason they have no privileges.

    To solve this you have to modify /Library/Preferences/com.apple.AppleFileServer.plist
    Set
    noNetworkUsers
    true

    It is the craziest thing I have ever seen, but it works.

    So how do you use lpadmin to modify the “Installable Options” of a printer?

    For instance, a printer with extra paper trays and upgraded RAM.

    I tried mapping UID to uSNCreated on the server and it did not seem to make a difference. Well it did break single sign on SMB for the PCs.

    I tried mapping UID to uSNCreated on the client and it seemed to help. Now Mac clients who are joined to the domain can access all the areas on the OS X server they has privileges to. However, now there network drives don’t mount.

    Fix one break another.

    If I could just get AFP not to pass group auth down to the client that would do it.

    Supposedly there is a way to configure AFP to NOT hand off enforcement of user/group/other permissions to the client.

    Does anyone know how to configure this option?

    Mike Bartosh’s article made it work for me.

    However it has not been updated for 10.3.3 yet. Now with 10.3.3 you don’t have to join it to AD using the terminal. Make sure to watch the webcast. Just dedicate an hour to watching it before you start.
