Integrating Mac OS X Directory Services With Active Directory 643
2 Set up the Mac OS X Server that provides Apple file service so it can access the Active
Directory data.
Use the Directory Access application to create an LDAPv3 configuration for the Active
Directory domain on the Windows server. In addition, use Directory Access to include this
LDAPv3 configuration in the Mac OS X Server search policy. Chapter 2, “Directory Services,”
has detailed instructions for these tasks. Appendix A, “Data Requirements of Mac OS X
Directory Services,” has detailed specifications of record types and attributes required by
Mac OS X directory services.
3 Set up AFP share points and Apple file service on the Mac OS X Server.
Use the Sharing module of Workgroup Manager to set up share points. Use Server Settings to
set up Apple file service. For detailed instructions, see Chapter 4, “Sharing,” and Chapter 5,
“File Services.”
Hosting Home Directories for Users Defined in Active Directory
Domains
When you integrate Mac OS X Server into an environment with an Active Directory domain
that stores user information, Mac OS X client computers can use this information to
authenticate users who log in, while one or more Mac OS X Servers store home directories
for these users.
