A year ago we did custom schema modifications to active directory
allowing our OS X clients to authenticate and mount a home directory
on our W2K servers.

We are switching to Windows Server 2003.

We have recreated (and re-checked many times over) our schema changes
and Directory Access settings, but still get no home directory to
mount. We faught many abttles to get file sharing to even work between
the two machines. Now it does, but no home directory is mounted during
loggin. (Before moving on to SMB or LDAPv3 we are just trying to get
AFP and LDAPv2 to work as it did before.)

Presuming we haven't mad any mistakes, is anyone aware of an issue
that might be causing our home directories not to mount during loggin
on a W2K3 server?

Have a chat with the guys at www.macosxlabs.org as I believe they are doing
this at the moment.

Could you also post here (or email me) what schema modifications you have
made? I am doing this at the moment in a test environment for W2K and Server
2003 and it is making me think I should just wait until MacAdmin 3 has been
perfected.
