Thanks for the response. I am using WGM to set up accounts. The messages I have stated come when I try to make a home directory in WGM.

We have been using OD just fine. Had all the accounts set up and made home directories for them. NOW when I add an account and try to map the home directory to where all the other directories are it comes up with an error that says: Unable to create home directory. The home directory...

I see lots of peeks to this post. Is it impossible? Are we the only place that has this wonderful problem? This is what you get for upgrading, LOL.

Is there a way to push the work group application preferences to 10.4.11 clients from a 10.6 server? It says and only does send them to 10.5 clients. I was wondering if there is a work around for this. There are OLD machines that still work well out here in the real world, LOL. Thanks for...

Thanks, that fixed a lot. I'm still experimenting. Can users share a home folder in a workgroup or do I have to make a new home folder for each user? I think I understand that if I want a few students to be able to use program A, B, C I make a group with them as members and set prefs for all...

I've setup practice accounts on the new server. I can log on as long as I don't assign a home folder. I created a folder called HOMES on the 10.6 hard drive and mapped the home to that folder. After I set a home folder when I try to log in on a 10.4.11 machine I get this error message...

I apologize for my "ignorant" posts. I'm at a small school, self taught ALL of my networking/server work. I've been working for a couple of weeks on and off to get this new server too work and need help. Thanks in advance. Here's what we had: We had standalone computers that had an admin...

I GOT IT!!! Thanks. Now I have a bigger problem. Here's what we had: We had standalone computers that had an admin and student client. Our students would log on to the student side and do their work. We have a standalone server that they go to to save away from the workstation they are...

We just got a 10.6 server. We have not been using open directory but would like to start. I can get 10.5 clients to connect to the open directory serve but I don't know how to get 10.4.11 clients to connect. The 10.6 is on an X server. The 10.5 clients are on MacBooks. The 10.4.11...
