Yeah… I repaired it via brute force. I had a box full of Tiger Server upgrades I’d bought but hadnt scheduled the upgrades yet, so I just did an emergency maintenance to get it back online. Afterwards, I had to re-tweak all the settings files (aliases, vacation, master.cf, etc) but it is working hunky-dory now (and I have iChat service to boot!)

I can fix my problem three ways as I see it
(in ascending order of conceptual difficulty?)

1 – fix the automount
2 – fix the OD domain to match the server reality
3 – import the users with passwords into a new OD master

I tried the 3rd already, to create a new od.hq.domain.net master and import the users LDIF and OD database from the replica, but it refused to bring them in because the LDIF is full of references to od.domain.net. I thought about editing a copy (as a text file), but there are lots of places where there is formatted data that shifts when I do a global replace. I saw that and didnt bother trying to import it

so – any tips on one of thes options? Is there another route?
