Thanks for the replies. Sorry for my late response, I’ve been out of the office for a few days.
First off, no home folders are being created anywhere – even when logging in as the user for the first time.
DNS seems to be working fine. If I run “host” and “changeip -checkhostname” from the command line everything checks out:
[code]
xserve:~ admin$ sudo changeip -checkhostname
Primary address = 10.195.80.10
Current HostName = xserve.mydomain.com
DNS HostName = xserve.mydomain.com
The names match. There is nothing to change.
xserve:~ admin$ host xserve
xserve.mydomain.com has address 10.195.80.10
xserve:~ admin$ host 10.195.80.10
10.80.195.10.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer xserve.mydomain.com.
[/code]
I started looking through user accounts in WGM and noticed that the location for my users home folders had changed. If I look at the home tab for a user account, the homes show up as:
afp://10.195.80.10/Users/username
/Network/Servers/xserve.local/Volumes/X-RAID/Users/username
The “xserve.local” used to be xserve.mydomain.com prior to the 10.4.6 update. The edit button is grayed out so I am unable to change the value in the home tab of WGM. I think I can change this in the inspector tab of WGM in the mounts section, but I’m a little hesitant to do so without posting here first. Or should I create a “new” location for my home folders and change all my users to use that location?
I’m also seeing some errors in my system.log:
[code]
Jul 11 10:58:55 xserve automount[13948]: Can’t mount xserve.local:/Volumes/X-RAID/Users on /private/Network/Servers/xserve.local/Volumes/X-RAID/Users: Authentication error (80)

Jul 11 11:04:44 xserve bootpd[14000]: server name xserve.mydomain.com
[/code]
Seems like that xserve.local is causing all sorts of trouble. Hopefully I can just edit the mount record and it will magically fix all my problems. What do you think? Thanks for any help you can offer.

Anyone find an answer to this? I’m having the exact same issue.
