Migrate local client users to OD users
Good afternoon.
In the last year I have been hired at a company with over 140 client machines and numerous intel xserves. The problem (and the nightmare) is that they have never set up the client machines and users as part of the OD.
For the obvious reasons of management, single sign on, and security I would like to implement an OD company-wide with replicas. The main hurdle right now is how do I migrate the local user accounts on each client to OD accounts and keep the local user home folders? I do not need to make these users portable users, just want them to authenticate against the OD.
Also how do I handle authentication for users with laptops when they are offsite?
Thanks!
