Well done.

I haven’t done any of the Apple course but found the client exam was quite hard. I’d say the server exams is a bit more difficult but there is better documentation of Mac OS X Server so its easier to revise for (espically if you haven’t been on the course like myself). All the topics you need to know are in SKills Assessment PDF on the Mac website. If you know every point on the Skills Assement then you can pass the exam.

Similar to the client exam you have to know how to do most things from the command line.

If you do the course then I think the exam shouldn’t be too hard.

Yep, I’d say the ACSA is quite hard. You really have to have a good understanding of UNIX and many of the commands with the switches. I found this has improved my skills a lot. I come from a MCSE background so I’d never been great at the command line or really understanding the UNIX way of working. All changed now though.

People do take the micky about me doing Apple certs. They say it gives you the skills to be able to recommend whether to get a pink or green iPod mini!!!

In the Advanced Security dialog where you got to, the entries should look something like this:

Type Name Permissions Inherited Apply To
Allow adsetup Full Control This object and all child objects
Allow adsetup Full Control User objects
Allow adsetup Full Control Group ojbects
Allow adsetup Full Control InetOrgPerson Objects

I don’t know whether this permission fix works for everyone (were using Windows 2003 AD) but it could be worth a try.

Could you clarify your solution for me?
I assume you’re using AD Users and Computers with view advanced features enabled. Then you right click on the OU in question and select properties. Then select the Security tab and then click on the Advanced button at the bottom. This is where I get confused. For example we use an AD group called adsetup. Should there be 4 entries for adsetup with the create computer objects permission and each of the 4 objects in the Apply To column?

Thanks for any help you can give, this problem has been driving us crazy.
