hobbesmaster posted:thats an apple directory services feature for an osx client in an osx domain. the question is how to get the same thing to work for osx in a windows environment and the answer get MS to work on openldap what i'm saying is if i flick that checkbox on our mac build it caches that user's login credentials like you would expect a windows laptop to do by default on our ms domain that's how we preconfigure our mbps for the handful of people that have them we don't have an os x server on this side of the firewall

pretty much we gave our production guys a choice and half of them are transitioning to our windows workstations instead of loving around with the 'literally a macbook air' imacs or mac pros

Shaggar posted:yeah that's the other thing. they break random things every point release so you never ever upgrade unless theres a feature you want and you've gone through a month of regression testing apple basically doesn't give a poo poo about any part of os x actually working or not the fact that any part of it hangs together at all is no less than a miracle we gave you x, y, and z as options, but only one of them will work at any given time, have fun figuring it out i particularly liked the transition plan of simply not using .file metadata from one os x version to the next over smb shares, that's a loving landmine we're still standing on and I'm not about to lift the foot on it VAGENDA OF MANOCIDE fucked around with this message at 14:41 on Jul 8, 2014 |

Mr Dog posted:alright no trolling in the pos please are those actually the names of a thing it's integrating an apple directory server into your ad domain, there's write-ups of it if you're interested right now if you want to authenticate to ad network resources you're putting an additional entry into the keychain with your ad creds for every resource and that's retarded
