eyapp is on a distinguished road
Mac OSX and Windows Active Directory

Hi guys,

Not sure if you can help me - I think I have a unique situation.

I know how to join a Mac machine to the Windows Active Directory.
However, is there a way to link a mac user's current local user profile to their username?

I thought of changing their name (not short name), to match their username. However, that doesn't work.

Any thoughts? I'm running out of patience on this one.

Thanks,
