New users accounts keep getting disabled at login

It seems to have to do only with using WGM for creating user accounts. No matter how the password poilicy is set, I have the problem.

Delete all Presets !

Without presets new users can login.

@apple: please fix WGM and send us the link to the update ! 😠

Nearly,

I found that an account created with WGM was not able to log in at all (preset or not). In Server App/Users pane it appears as "Not allowed". But just opening the "Edit Acess to services"-item in the gear and closing it again, will solve that problem.

Today I was actually able to export users from my 10.6 OD and import them - witt the above mentioned workaround and reset passwords - Voila!

But this is of cause not a part of Apples documentation....

If the user is in a group with access to filesharing, you have nothing to change in ServerApp.

Export, delete and import users wil not work. I have to delete and recreate each user without presets.

The last days I found that the "Not Allowed" mark can be removed by choosing "Edit Acess to services..." for the user(s) in question and do a change back and forth here. That will allow them.

Sometimes editing, deleting, creating, resetting passwords ect. causes Server.app to crash or stall. Horrible beta (shame on Apple, who encourages us to make reliable apps following there HIG for the worlds most advanced opetrating system) - I think the best we can do is to keep reporting problems to them via the feedback option.

By the way - I found Passenger useful for import purposes

When you use WGM to create accounts, are you using a Preset ?

No, I stopped using presets but still in some cases, the users would show up as not allowed in SA. The mentioned workaround solved that problem. In fact I stopped using WM for creating users, but I hope to be able to use it for managing the after they're created.
