    Network User Account vs. OD, LDAP

    OS X 10.6.4

    At the login screen I can click through choices above "NAME" and see the time, my IP address, Build Number and that the "Network User Account Available".

    What? Who is the network user? I didn't create one that I'm aware of. How do I figure out who is the network user?

    Active Directory plugin loads lazily according to the logs.
    LDAP3 is disabled in Directory Utility.

    /BSD/Local has no user or group records so that's normal, but under services there's a list of 60-100 services such as "backroom.net", "anynetgateway", "filenet.rpc", "galaxyserver" - is that stuff legit?

    /Default/Local has groups and users but nothing stands out besides the two accounts I created on the machine.

    I've RTFM three times or more and am stumped.

    Thank you for your time considering this issue.

    "Network User Account Available" sounds like a Windows, not an OS X message.

    Where are you seeing this?

    Agent1 says that's on the login window. Click on the information area underneath the OS X.
    You'll see it cycle through serial number, computer name, OS X build number, and some others, depending on the configuration of the system.
    Serendipity is a lucky guess !
