OSX Server 10.7.x Wiki Access

Hi All,

I am trying to access the Wiki included in OSX 10.7.2. Everything seems to be set up properly and I can log into the wiki with a local user account, but I am unable to log in with a mobile/managed user account. I found this article that pertains to AD clients connecting to OSX Server 10.6.x (I am actually using the default Open Directory that comes with OSX Server):

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1619

I tried doing what the atricle says, but this did not seem to work. My guess is that this issue is specific to older OSX Server software. Any thoughts would greatly be appreciated.

Mac mini (Late 2009), Mac OS X (10.7.2)

After thinking about this for a while, I had an idea to add the mobile user to the localaccounts group. I ended up running:

dscl . -append /Groups/localaccounts GroupMembership username

This made no difference at all (I just wanted to mention what I tried). Still searching for a way to get mobile user accounts logged into the wiki. Sigh.

Looks like this definitely has something to do specifically with mobile accounts. When I create a network account I am able to log into the wiki with no issue. Anyone else using mobile accounts figure out how to get them authenticated to the wiki?
