Server 10.8 Can't see AD users

Hi,


I have Mountain Lion Server and I bound the Mac server with Active Directory Windows server, but when I go to Users in Server app on Mac I can't see the AD users and so I can't edit it. On Lion I have seen it.

Nothing help, update to 10.8.1, 10.8.2 even the newest update of Server app to 2.1.


Has anybody any Idea how can I see the AD users in Server app? I need it to change the Home folder, and thats only goes in Server app.


Thanks.

I try it to rebind but nothing happens.

In all manual is, when I see the users (to time I can't - probably Apple's bug), then I need to go top advance menu in Server app to change the home folder. But I try it in Lion (it should go too) and only a error was the answer. I try augment users, but nothing works like in the apple manuals ...


Have you try to change the home folder for AD users?

How can I expand the AD schema and what is it, how it's work?


Thanks.

First things first! In order to successfully bind your servers, first make sure:

  • 1) DNS is working properly, forward AND reverse. All servers and workstations should use the same DNS server for internal resolving.
  • 2) Network time is OK, all servers and workstations are using the same time server. Remember: kerberos,which relies on correct time, is involved in binding.
