I'm trying to allow Open Directory users to login over Screen Sharing to my Mountain Lion servers. I have tried the solution on the page linked below and it isn't working. Maybe I'm missing something:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2329389?start=0&tstart=0
MAC MINI SERVER (LATE 2012), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)
From the menu bar on the Screen Sharing server, select
▹ System Preferences... ▹ Users & Groups ▹ Login Options
and check the box marked
Allow network users to log in at the login window
If there's a closed padlock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane, you may need to click it to unlock the settings. Enter your login password when prompted.
Note that this option is only available when the server is bound to a network directory server.
The box in question was already checked.
What's in the logs?
I had the same issue. Once you complete the steps out lined here

create the groups populate them then restart the screen sharing service. Just uncheck and recheck screen sharing. Then my open directory users could access screen sharing.
