[QUOTE][u]Quote by: Dman[/u][p]This is a great thread. Exactly what I’m trying to do with my users. Only something didn’t work when I tested it.
I’m following your method for converting standalone users to mobile OD account. I’m working with one test client I called joeuser. I followed you abbreviated steps and just deleted the netinfo user on the client machine, Chown’d the old folder, then after setting up the OD mobile user and logging in it created the Home. Only it didn’t use the existing joeuser home it created and new Home called 99 that I can’t access. I can however access the old home folder still.
Any ideas on what went wrong?

Yes on the server in Workgroup Manager, choose Accounts, joeuser, Home tab, click the item under (none) should be afp://serverip/Users and choose Create Home Now. If its grey you need to click the pad lock in top right. Then when you log in you won’t get the 99 folder. Delete any 99 folders if you see them afterwards. I think the author didnt mention this step because its always the first thing you normally do when you create a new account on the server.
