Binding Settings

Hello,

We bind our macs to active directory, and they are all 10.4. We have binding settings in Casper that does the following: Directory Access to 'Create mobile account at login', 'Force local home directory on startup disk', and 'Use UNC path from Active Directory to derive network home location'. This puts the network folder of the user on the doc, which is an SMB share on our windows server. On the first login, it puts the user's folder on the dock and things work great, but on reboots, it seems to stop working. Anyone have any ideas why it would stop working?

Thanks,

on 10.4.11 Intel clients, the folder will be a "?" in the Dock. Apple knows and doesn't plan to fix it. Is that what you are seeing? works on 10.4 PPC and 10.5 fine.
