[MacTUG] Home folder redirection

[Dani Roloson]

I did find this:

  In Workgroup Manager, [ authenticated to /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 ]  go to Inspector/Config/augmentconfiguration.

  Edit the XMLPlist attribute and remove the following two lines:

  Augmented Directory Node Name
  /Active Directory/All Domains

  Save the setting, reboot the 10.7 client and please let me know if the AFP home mounts.

The problem is that augmentconfiguration exists on our 10.6 server but not the 10.7 server.

Any ideas on how to trigger its creation?

Subject: [MacTUG] Home folder redirection

I've got a 10.7.4 client and a 10.7.4 server (both clean installs) and a 2003 SP2 AD domain.
(The redirection of home folders works fine with 10.6.8 clients and 10.6.8 servers with the above AD domain.)

Followed these rules:
* Use Server app (as much as possible).
* Bind to AD first; then create OD master.

The only service I turned on was Profile Manager.

Workgroup Manager seems to still be the only way to create
New Augmented User Records

We used to add these fields to the augmentation

dsAttrTypeNative:apple-user-homeurl    '<home_dir><url>smb://FQDNofSMBserver/cifs.homedir</url><path>MacProfile</path> </home_dir>'

dsAttrTypeNative:homeDirectory          /Network/Servers/FQDNofSMBserver/cifs.homedir/MacProfile

but they don't appear and the values show up in HomeDirectory and NFSHomeDirectory respectively
so I now set up those fields instead i.e.

HomeDirectory     '<home_dir><url>smb://FQDNofSMBserver/cifs.homedir</url><path>MacProfile</path> </home_dir>'

NFSHomeDirectory  /Network/Servers/FQDNofSMBserver/cifs.homedir/MacProfile

In Directory Utility -> Active Directory -> Advanced Options -> User Experience
both Force local home directory on startup disk
and Use UNC path from Active Directory to derive network home location
are unchecked.

With 10.6, we had to establish a trust with AD after each reboot using a LaunchDaemon
that would wait until the loginwindow was running, enable UNC path, lookup a known AD user,
and disable UNC path.  That doesn't seem to help either.

I'm getting a local home directory on startup disk
and nothing under /Network/Servers. 8-(
