If you create a new user, then delete that user, does the same thing happen?
Or might it be only with a couple users?
You could try deleting a user via dscl in Terminal. Pretty straightforward:
Assuming your users are in LDAP, it would go something like this:
sudo dscl /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1
cd Users
ls (to see all users)
delete username
We, too, have been experiencing this same problem for a long while now. So when i saw your post I gave it a try.
When I typed the delete command I got the following response:
<dscl_cmd> DS Error: -14120 (eDSPermissionError)
This is an abbreviated message from the one I get when i try to delete the user in WGM:
Got Unexpected Error:
Error of type eDSAuthNoAuthServerFound (-14102) on line 1645 of /SourceCache/WorkgroupManager/WorkgroupManager-319.2.2/PMMUGMainView.mm
I really do appreciate your input to this problem which we have been dealing with for a very long time. But, unfortunately, it didn't resolve our issue. Hopefully it will resolve the originally posters problem though.
