Cannot create mobile account on Mac Os bound to AD

Asked by Vurv in Leopard (MAC OS 10.5), Apple Laptop

Tags: Apple, Leopard, 10.5.2

Experts,


I am running Leopard 10.5.2 on a MacBook Pro and a few Air's, I am able to bind them to AD every time. My domain is listed as connected and functional in the Directory Services window. My DNS and WINS information is all correct in network preferences. I have had my laptops set up to create mobile accounts with and without prompting.

 
The first login attempt after binding to the domain was successful. My account was logged in, a mobile profile was created (I think), then I immediately log off, and attempt to log back in with the mobile account and my login fails every-time, sometimes goes to a blue screen, then bounces back to login screen, other times it just hangs.


I've changed almost every setting in directory services and have gone through some of the things mentioned through out these forums. Anything we try seems to not work. Other forums say it's a bug. Is there anyone else having these issues that have found a fix? I have been banging my head on my desk for over a week now.

Thanks in advance,     -Aub


Update: I am able to get this to work with AdmitMac, but it's not a viable solution for us as the licenses are sum what expensive.
