The 10.6 server is hosting home directories, except for the case of established AD users that already have mappings. The only shares available now to each test user is a common share and a home directory. Automount is turned on for each share and they are being hosted AFP.

Interestingly, I just got the 10.4 client to connect to the LDAP server by not authenticating. If I leave the bind process with no credentials and just click OK, then the computer shows Network Accounts available. When you try to login though it kicks an error out:

“You are unable to log in to the user account rockreststudent at this time. Logging in to the account failed because an error occurred. The home folder for the user account is located on an AFP or SMB server. Contact your system administrator for help.”

Here are the messages when trying to login at >console

10.5 client: No home directory /Network/Servers/…/rockreststudent!
Logging in with home = “/”
