phpLDAPAdmin worked like a charm as promised. I’ve got a support call open with AppleCare regarding which WGM plist files to modify and will post back once greater knowledge is obtained.

Joel, thank you for the pointer.

For the benefit of others, a book that is useful for this is available at this link:

A good kbase article is: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/howto/kerbstep.mspx

I’ll post back anything else that I can find out about this, and also pictures of my cuts and bruises as I try to stumble through this process. 🙂

I have machines that are managed by AD, and I want users to be able to log in to the login window of Windows, but authenticate off of OD. I would use pGina, however I need to have certain users in certain groups, like Debuggers, Power Users, etc., and because of the lab environment I’m managing, I can’t just put these users in local machine groups in a PDC type setup, all the while maintaining my ability to push group policies through AD to the machine.

They need to be in OD as well because I need to have a replica structure that extends to many sites that do not have the greatest network connection. For several reasons we have chosen OD as our distributed and replicated directory structure for our ~70 sites. The sites that are network-stability-deprived do not have PCs that need user authentication in that matter but they do need reliable OD authentication.
