Ok I’m giving up on this idiot forum software at this point because it keeps:
1) Losing text it took me a while to type
2) Thinking the text is spam, even though I am a registered user.
I’ll put my findings up on the UniMac Tech list or somewhere else that actually has functioning software.

Migrating Users
I followed the instructions given here:
https://www.afp548.com/article.php?story=20050615173039158They worked (power to the authors!) but it took quite some trial and error.
Again I cannot stress the usefulness of Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC) enough – the rollbacks during the process were much more painless thanks to it.After the users were migrated there were still some minor breaks which had to be touched up by hand.
Eg.
In WGM, the group memberships were not reflected properly, even though the command line was showing the correct information. The only cure I found was to manually re-add the members to the groups, but for some groups this would not be practical.
The cause is that the schema in OpenDirectory doesnt quite come across properly with respect to groups. With enough fiddling with the dscl util and cunning shell scripting, the repair could be automated I’m sure.Some new info:
-14351 Error occured when receiving data from a remote server.

-which would tend to suggest an OD problem, but where to look ???
