Chapter 7 Setting Up Home Directories 113

When a user logs in, he or she is authenticated using an account stored in a shared

directory domain on the accounts server. The location of the user’s home directory,

stored in the account, is used to mount the home directory, which resides physically on

one of the two home directory servers.

Here are the steps you could use to set up this scenario for AFP home directories:

Step 1: Create a shared domain for the user accounts on the accounts server

You create a shared LDAP directory domain by setting up an Open Directory master, as

described in the Open Directory administration guide.

Step 2: Set up an automountable share point for the home directories on

each home directory server

For instructions on how to set up automountable share points, see “Setting Up an

Automountable AFP Share Point for Home Directories” on page 119.

Step 3: Create the user accounts in the shared domain on the accounts

server

Instructions later in this chapter tell you how to set up accounts so that home

directories reside in one or the other of the automountable share points.

See instructions in “Creating Mac OS X Server User Accounts” on page 59 to learn how

to set user account attributes and subsequent sections of this chapter for details

specific to home directory setup.

Step 4: Set up the directory services of the client computers so their search

policy includes the shared directory domain on the accounts server

See the Open Directory administration guide for information about configuring search

policies.

When a user restarts his or her computer and logs in using the account in the shared

domain, the home directory is created automatically (if it hasn’t already been created)

on the appropriate server and is visible on the user’s computer.

Note: Home directories are automatically created the first time a user logs in only on

share points served via an AFP server. NFS home directories must be created manually.

Specifying No Home Directory

You can use Workgroup Manager to change a user account that has a home directory

to have none. By default, new users have no home directory.

To define no home directory:

1 In Workgroup Manager, click Accounts.

2 Open the directory domain in which the user account resides and authenticate as an

administrator of the domain.
