Open Directory - Local Network User/Group - GONE
This morning everything seemed to be working normally, then an email couldn't be sent through my local server. Kept asking me to sign in. Eventually tracked it down to Open Directory playing up. In Server.app, the 'Local Network' option for both Users and Groups was empty. After a restart of the server (and half a dozen more since) there is no longer any pop-up in Users or Groups at all. There's just the list of locals and that's all.
Trying to look into this with either WorkGroup Manager or Directory utility just results in an error, so looks like OD has comprehensively shot itself in the foot, all by itself. Nothing has been done to the server for weeks, this is entirely of its own doing.
Admittedly there's not many Users and/or Groups to re-create, but at the moment I can't even do that as it doesn't even know there's an LDAP directory to add them to. So looks like I'll have to destroy the entire OD setup and start again from scratch. Just what I wanted to do this weekend. Thanks Apple.
Anyone got any info on how Server.app manages to do this and what can be done to fix it and hopefully stop it from occurring again?
