"Other" option in login window disappears randomy?

I've just setup my first Lion server and am using a test user. I've successfully binded the client computer. All the DNS setup seems to work (forward and reverse). But a weird thing is, sometimes the "Other" option in the login window just disappears randomly. Sometimes it'll be there, sometimes it'll just show only the local users.


I don't get it. Any ideas?

What I have found is that it can take 15 to 30 seconds (or as we refer to that much time in IT, forever) to show up. Even if you log in as a network user and log right back out.


Made me remember the shortcut for getting the name and password screen:


Command-Option-an arrow key and press return.
