    Can’t you just create one build-train with your base needs and use the output file as a cache in another build-train?

    So the Base updates are updates that require reboot? Some updates like the 10.5.x combo updater installs, then reboots and runs a some install scripts [plus another reboot?]. Does InstaDMG have to worry about that?

    I would guess that your firmware assumption is wrong. To my knowledge the SMC and EFI firmware can’t be modified without a normal firmware update.

    On a similar note: I don’t quite get why InstaDMG splits updates into BaseUpdates and CustomPKG. Does it matter what goes where?

    [QUOTE][u]Quote by: vogtstev[/u][p]Hmmm. So I’m thinking it’s not really augmenting since i haven’t ever set that up, but definitely using some form of the magic triangle. I’ve been trying to think of ways to get this fixed and so far this is what I have:

    1. Prevent the “augmentation” – no idea how I can do this aside from removing machine from directory services which means I would loose all management. I would like this to work.
    2. Asked OpenLDAP admins to change the UID’s of the few in the 500 UID range. They said they were worried about this causing problems. What would this cause?
    3. Have to change UID’s on all my clients. This is the most work, but maybe what I’ll have to do. The only problem is that I believe leopard will create UID’s again starting in the 500 range. Is there a way to tell it to start at 550 or 601 or something?

    Thanks again for any ideas!
    [/p][/QUOTE]

    2. Changing the UIDs is trivial. You will get privilege errors if the user is logged in somewhere until you chown the files. Until then ls -al will show the old UID or even the matching local username (with that UID) as the owner (depending on where you look at the files from).

    3. Don’t do this. Best practices are there for a reason. Like larkost said the problem is being caused by the admins creating LDAP users in the wrong UID space.

    Isn’t that the whole point of the /etc/authorization mechanism, a place to elevate privileges for specific programs?

    Is there a better forum to discuss /etc/authorization?

    Have you tried cleaning their caches?

    the perl package Net::Server was the culprit. After removing it (by copying /System/Library/Perl and /Library/Perl verbatim from another server and restarting the problem went away.

    The Net::Server package was installed as per instructions found in https://www.afp548.com/article.php?story=20051127235810230 – this article should be updated!

    I have the same problem–amavis not working–except I’ve found that just turning off spam and virus scanning “fixes” it…which is NO GOOD

    Edit: I didn’t see a disabled key in the .plist file.

    Whenever spam and virus scanning is enbled I get this in /var/log/mail.log

    I have a very similar problem on 10.4.6 server and 10.4.6 client

    If you want to do content control you need an application such as squid to do that. I don’t know if Cisco routers can do that, but I’m guessing it’s possible (but its way out of my league so you’ll need someone else to help you with that). My feeling (or religion) is that you should always use hardware boxes to provide network access and refrain as much as possible on relying on multi-role servers such as your XServe to do that for you.

    Other than that your XServe should be able to do what you describe. Assuming you’ll use the Cisco router (which provided it can do content-filtering is an excellent choice) you just need to follow a few simple steps which are detailed in the manuals, but basically boil down to this:

    Turn open directory on and set it to be a directory master

    Go to a client computer, open “directory access”, enter the ip of the server into the address field, the rest should be automatic provided that you have 10.4.

    Open Workgroup manager and connect to the server and create a directory on a HD that has plenty of space (RAID or such) and set it to house network home directories.

    Create a user (username, password) and set the homedirectory to the new record in the list (afp://myserver/MySharepoint f.x.).

    Now your users should be able to log in.

    I don’t know any tutorials, but I think I can help you get started.

    First I need to know the server’s role. Is it supposed to serve home directories to mac clients on the network. Will it do Web externally? Give me all the information you can and we’ll start from there.

    lookupd is also taking 40+% CPU time

    Maybe I should have worded the question like this:
    How does the Aliases tab in the Web part of Server Admin work?
