Q: make available home directories is grayed out
Upgraded AFP & OD servers from 10.6.8 to 10.8.4. Newly created sharepoints on the AFP server can't be activated as home directories because the line is grayed out. I would like to do it. Previous sharepoints remain activated but do not show as share points in the workgroup manager on the OD server.
I performed basic checks as changeip checkhostname and remade the binding between AFP server and OD one.
The funny thing is that in anticipation of such problems I bought the book "OSX Lion Server Essentials" and it says in the Network Home Folder chapter: "It is outside the scope of this book to assign a user a network home folder that is hosted on a server other than the server that is the OD master..."
Any hint of what I could outside of a clean install ?
Mac Pro, OS X Server

Clean install didn't solve this. It worked only by turning the AFP server into an OD replica, and this seems to work only for the first replica.
