I just installed Panther server and set up LDAP. Using the group manager, I created a user and home directory. If I create the user on the client machine, I can authenticate and connect to the server directory. However, If the user is not created on client machine, I cannot authenticate. I am completely stumped as to how to debug this. I have checked and checked again that everything is set correctly but I am stumped. Can someone please suggest a way to debug this? I have used Kerberos under Unix but OS X hides so much I cannot even find the KDC database or logs. TIA.

Need LDAP/Kerberos setup help on Panther server

I finally found the log. Now I know what is happening but not why. Although there is no error alert when I add a user, I found the error, "could not add kerberos principle," in the log where the ADDUSER occurs. Anyone have any suggestions? TIA.

As I continue to get more and more frustrated with this, I have now determined (maybe) that the problem is that the server manager is not creating a Kerberos database. Or at least there is nothing in /var/db called openldap which is where it is supposed to be.
Has no one tried to implement this that can help me?
