Yech. The Join Kerberos button shouldn't A. Come back or B. be visible on an OD Master that's not connected to a third party DS in the background. Check the slapconfig and kdc logs on in Server Admin. Also, you'll want to manually set the hostname of the server: sudo scutil --set HostName...

Did you call regular AppleCare or the Enterprise AppleCare? Michael

So you'll be using the Kerberos provided from Microsoft's Active Directory and you want to join the Apple to it? Or are you trying to host an Open Directory domain and it appears the KDC isn't starting? I'm happy to help, once I know which one it is your doing! :) Michael

That could have been a corruption. I'd talk to AppleCare. Unfortunately, you may need to restore from backup. Was all of your firmware up to date? Michael

Congrats! I was a scholarship winner a few years back and have attended the last three WWDCs. Great conference! Make sure to stop and say hi if you see me around. I always enjoy meeting folks from all the different online communities I contribute to. :) A buddy of mine was accepted as well...

I wasn't sure if I was going to post about this anywhere, but since there isn't a thread dedicated to him on MacOSX.com, I thought it was right to recognize him on the Server board. It pains me to say that the world as a whole and the Apple community specifically, suffered a great loss this...

Just remember, if you lose an AFP server, one school won't be able to login. On a grander scale, if you lose a RAID controller or a fibre cable, you'll lose multiple schools, since login will fail without being able to hit the network home. PHD will allow you to be up, even when your down. :)

So, couple things - 1. As I'm understanding, you aren't using the same path 18 times, but 18 paths as individual share points. That will work, since each host server will control their own point. 2. Is dividing up an XSR 16 times going to provide enough disk space for your students? Even...

Point #2 is a limitation of SMB. If you take a peek at Microsoft's guide to file sharing for cross platform environments, they state not to name a volume more than 12 characters, as it may not be visible. This is true of Samba. It appears from past experience that a Windows CIFS client to a...

Well, remember, in each sharing type, per share, you can set the default permission set. Check to see if your using the same exact logic on both SMB and AFP sharing in Workgroup Manager, under sharing. Michael

Sure. You want to use the kickstart bundle that's included in Mac OS X. For example, provided you have SSH access: ssh admin@client.example.com "/System/Library/CoreServices/ RemoteManagement/ARD\ Agent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart/ -activate -configure -access -on -users admin -privs...

Whoa. Bad idea! You don't want to mount the same volume across 13 hosts without some sort of control. Think of it this way, what if they all write to the same blocks at the same time? Yeah yeah, file locking and whatnot, but still, this is a recipe for disaster and data corruption. If you...

I'd consider running some directory service debugging to see what's going on. Have you done that before? It can be very verbose in its logging! :) Michael

Take a look at the whitepaper on my site: http://www.district13computing.com/docs/backup3.pdf Veritas gets the job done, to some extent, but products like Time Navigator and NetVault, since they have been tuned for Mac OS X specifically, should show you greater performance. You may want to...

Take a look at the white paper on my site, at: http://www.district13computing.com/docs/backup3.pdf That will outline some great ways to backup Mac OS X in cross platform environment, as well as tape rotation schemes and whatnot. Michael
