I doubt it, but maybe any1 in here has an idea ...

Setup Server 10.3.1
Running:
AFP
DHCP
Firewall
NAT
OPEN DIRECTORY

Created LAN with a Powerbook on. And it is working fine, like

Internet access
Login as Network User
Kerberos Authentication and Group folder mount on startup

so far so good. Enabling then "Mobil Accounts" an account is created but it is different from the one the Network User has. But thats not the only thing - the then "mobile" Account can not access the User Folder on the Server if not mounted manually via "Go->Connect to Server". The Group folder is mounted btw.

I followed more or less the example nicely explained on thechipkahouse, but the home folder is on afp://server/Users/ and not like chipka pointed out on /Users/, because creation of the User-folder is only possible on the afp volume. Changing after to /Users/ as home-folder does not show the Server-Home-folder at all.

Maybe I didn't get the point about the "Mobile Accounts" but I though it will "Mirror" an Server Account. Well, any1 ... ?
