Hello,
I am struggling to fix a small error here related to Leopard 10.5 Directory Utility:
Scenario:- A department room with 10 Mac Pros
- All connected by ethernet wires
- Each Mac Pro are binded to Active Directory by Directory Utility
- No local accounts because student have their active directory username/password
- No LDAP configuration
A student told me that he couldn't log in. I tried with my username and it wont let me log in, too.
I logged in as a local admin since I am an Apple Technician and opened Directory Utility application. I clicked on "Services" icon and clicked on "Active Directory". The next thing I unbinded this computer ID and re-binded with correct "Network Administrator Required" username and password provided by our ITS Department. The box appeared saying that I entered incorrect username/password.
I had to ask my ITS Department Network Administrator to remove this specific computer ID off from the server for me to re-bind this. After the removal of this specific computer ID, I attempted to re-bind and it wont let me to due of incorrect username/password. I am completely puzzled.
I also am trying to find a specific folder to clean up Directory Utility's caches. I googled and couldn't find an answer. I know we can delete caches from Tiger 10.4's /Library/Managed Preferences folder. But I can't do the same thing with Leopard since Leopard killed "Netinfo". Is there a way for me to clean up the cache on Leopard or any advices would be appreciated.
Thanks!
I just don't have the foggiest idea what to suggest to help you. Check that-I have a couple of generic ideas. First, has this specific computer been rebooted recently? Has anything new been installed (including anything that a student may have installed, with or without permission)?
