In the middle of setting up our Casper Suite environment. Have the JSS, NetBoot / Casper Imaging all setup. Can bring 1082 images and dmgs down, no issues.
One issue that keeps coming up is binding to our company.local AD domain.
I am using dsconfigad to bind to a Windows 2008 R2 domain. (I can post the script if need be).
And it binds successfully, that is not the issue. It's the ensuing AD account when logging in.
Upon logging in as the AD test username, I get a OS X dock with missing icons, a bouncing OS X finder icon in the dock and no Apple menu bar.
A basically frozen / crashed OS X / Finder. (A seeming corruption on the creation of the AD object)?
Is this OS X? Something to do with the object / name created in the OU in AD? I am stumped.
We also have a devcompany.com domain, which I am going to test today, and see how that goes. I don't remember seeing this behavior in this domain and OU structure.
Note: the OU structure in the company.local domain, is like 7-8 levels deep before you hit the final "macs" OU.
The OU structure in the devcompany.com domain is short, like OU=macs,dc=devcompany,dc=com
thanks,
John
