Integrating your Apple OSX Clients With Your OpenLDAP Directory
I've just finished writing 2229 words on how to make your AppleOsx clients behave in an enviroment where you keep all your user, group and automount data in an OpenLdap server.
On the plus side making an OSX client behave like a responsible Unix workstation is more or less possible 1. On the down side it's been a long time since I had to use software which is so inconsistent, quirky and stunningly badly documented.
In the hopes that no one else has to spend months of their spare time figuring out how to make all this work, I bring you AppleOsxIntegrationWithOpenldap.
