The classes were created incorrectly as the wrong type. An Apple SE helped me remove the bad classes (they can’t be deleted) and since we were on AD2003 we could create new ones with the same names. This fixed my problems as far as group attributes goes. The user one’s aren’t there yet, but the project requiring this disappeared so I stopped working on it. I do have saved the Apple scripts that correctly extend the schema, I could e-mail them to you.

Turns out I still need some assistance. I ran the steps above just fine, but when trying to apply MCX to users or groups I get either error -14140 or -14142.

I found this thread here: https://www.afp548.com/forum/viewtopic.php?forum=24&showtopic=21539

I made the same corrections, but when I try the LDIF import again I get the following

The server side error is “A referral was returned from the server.”

I’m sure I’m running this from the AD schema master, my test environment is very simple.

I don’t understand this switch in the command line step above…

/c “DC=X” “DC=SF,DC=PRETENDCO,DC=COM”

Can someoene elaborate?

Any updates to this?

Our users carry far too much data (work) directly in their desktop which would fall into their home directory. gigs on gigs of traffic that would clog our hub and spoke architecture. They don’t roam, or have any need to take their home directory to another machine, so we’d prefer to just to have a local account generated on login, like an AD user not setup to have a roaming profile, a fresh start on each machine.

Now… if anyone can help me find the LDIF file that’s supposed to accompany the documents on integrating acs with eDirectory, that would be awesome. I’ve contacted authors of separate documents, but no response yet. It seems like macenterprise.org had the files at one point, but doesn’t any longer.

Well… I ended up using #/Users/$uid$ and boom, local home directories for me!

I could swear I had tried that before, oh well. I think perhaps I may have mapped the wrong attribute before, where i used “homedirectory” instead of NFShomedirectory

Either way, it’s working! 😀
