Using Xcode 4 with Open Directory Users

We have a lab of iMacs (10.7.2) with Xcode 4.2 that are bound to an OD server (10.6.8).
At the moment only a local admin user can build and run an iOS project in Xcode.
I already changed the Primary Group for the OD users to Group ID: 204 (_developer) which resolved some issues but OD Users still can't run an iOS project in the iOS Simulator.
Does anyone have a working solution?

9 months later, XCode 4.4 is out and we still have the above mentioned issue.
Is no one else using XCode with OD users?

  • IChat not working with Open Directory users

    I have a Mac Mini running Snow Leopard Server 10.6.1. It provides services like Address Book, iCal, iChat, Mobile Access, MySQL, Web, SMB, Push, etc... I named the server 'Alpha' with the hostname 'alpha.markhadjar.com'
    I use DynDNS to help update my dynamic IP address with my ISP. They host my domain markhadjar.com. I created an 'A' record for markhadjar.com using my current IP. The DynDNS software client sends my current dynamic IP address and updates the record. I also created an alias for 'www'.
    Airport Extreme port forwards the correct ports to the requested server providing those services.
    All my users are listed in the Open Directory. My trouble is I can't seem to get iChat to work for the OD users. I get a connection error.
    The jabber account i'm using is the [email protected] I use the server 'ichat.markhadjar.com' with port 5222 without SSL as I do not have a SSL certificate.
    In the ichat settings of Server Admin, I specified ichat.markhadjar.com as the server name. I also created an alias in DynDNS for ichat.markhadjar.com - not sure if that was needed.
    I cannot connect using iChat to the server. I even changed the server in the iChat preferences (client side) to just markhadjar.com with no luck.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks.

    Mark, you mention that this server 'alpha' is running many things including Mobile Access Server. Do you also run Open Directory on the server? I am trying to figure out if Open Directory is required to be running on the server that runs Mobile Access for it to work in authenticating users and granting them appropriate access. I am hoping it is not required, because I'm having problems getting it to replicate from the Master OD server. It would be easier if it doesn't need to run OD at all. But then if it doesn't run OD, what do I need to do to "bind" it to the other internal origin server? I have read all the MObile Access doc's 50 times, and this is not clear to me. Just wondering how you are using Mobile Access. thanks man!

  • Problems with Active Directory Users showing as not found in Open Directory work group manager

    I’m running a golden triangle setup with Open directory assigning group policy and authentication provide by active directory. In workgroup manager I can search through the AD and add users or computers to groups in OD workgroup manager. However when I save and refresh the users or computer appear as ‘not found’. Is there a reason for this?

    Hi Zero
    It's very reassuring to know im not the only one having issues with this..
    Im on my second re install of the server.. I like you have no wish to do another clean install as everything else is connected and it seems like the answer is probably very simple.
    So today im going to re- run the terminal commands as layed out in the online guides.
    However i was kinda hoping someone would be able to supply us with an answer.
    thanks

    I wonder if the disk being referred to is actually your iPod which is not plugged in. Maybe something has stuck thinking the iPod should be there.
    Try completely removing all the iTunes related programs according to this method.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    Restart you PC and see if startup improves.
    If it doesn't improve you need to consider the possibility that there is something else going on.
    If The problem goes away, hopefully a fresh install will be OK.

  • Authentication Delays / Slow Authentication for Open Directory Users

    I'm experiencing delays when authenticating Open Directory users and it absolutely has me at my wit's end.
    The problem is quite simple: any time an Open Directory user authenticates his password there is a delay of at least 5-10 seconds. This goes for clients that are bound to the directory server and also authenticating locally on the server. Here are some examples:
    * On the server, there is a several second delay on the Login Window screen when trying to log in using an Open Directory account. Logging in as a local user is instantaneous.
    * In Workgroup manager, authenticating as the Directory Administrator takes several seconds.
    * On a remote computer, sharing the screen using an Open Directory user take several seconds and again, a local user is instantaneous. Screen sharing takes particularly long and often temporarily shows a sheet saying it has lost the connection with the server while authenticating.
    * Connecting with AFP takes several seconds when using an Open Directory login
    * On a client computer, unlocking the screen after sleep or screen saver takes several seconds for Open Directory users
    * Connecting with SSH does NOT exhibit the behavior
    In addition to all of this, I've seen periodic random unexplainable freezes for several seconds on client computers that are bound to the directory even when logged in as a local user account (and with no other users logged in.) For example, launching applications often results in a freeze. After unbinding the computer from the directory the problem goes away entirely.
    The history of the problem:
    Used Tiger Server for over a year = no problems
    Clean install of Leopard Server 10.5.0 back in October = no problems
    Update to Leopard Server 10.5.1 = no problems
    Then, all of the sudden one day several weeks back I started having problems. The server had been up for a few weeks. I didn't install any updates. I didn't change any configuration. Literally the only thing that I had done recently was unplug the Apple Cinema Display and keyboard+mouse that was connected to the server. Then I started having problems so I plugged the display, keyboard and mouse back in to troubleshoot it. I cleared the directory services caches on my server and clients and rebooted the Airport Base Station that's serving as my router and eventually the problem went away. I wish I could tell you which of those things resolved the problem but I have no idea. It was fine for a couple more weeks (and incidentally I once again unplugged the display, keyboard and mouse from the server). Then last week I started having problems again and this time no amount of rebooting, cache clearing, rebinding, troubleshooting using information in these forums or anything else will fix the problem. I only mention the display/keyboard/mouse thing because it's literally the only thing I changed around the time the problems started happening. I truly don't think it has anything to do with it.
    So in desperation I backed up and did a clean install today. Here's the process I used:
    0. Erase the disk
    1. Install Leopard Server 10.5.0 from the install DVD
    2. In the setup assistant, use the Advanced Configuration option but I didn't enable any services. Set up network settings and host name of myserver.mydomain.private.
    3. Reboot
    4. Use Software Update to update to 10.5.1 and Security Update 2007-009 v1.1
    5. Reboot
    6. Configure DNS (see below for detailed configuration)
    7. Reboot
    8. Change role to Open Directory Master
    9. Reboot
    ... and the problem is still there. Simply logging into the server GUI with the Directory Administrator account has the delay. Authenticating in Workgroup Manager has the delay. I haven't even bothered to set up AFP or any other users yet. I'm truly at my wit's end and I'm ready to chuck the server out the window.
    I've done a lot of googling and searching of these forums looking for answers. All of the responses seem to point to a problem with DNS or with the Kerberos realm. I believe all of my setup is correct. Here it is:
    == Basic Configuration ==

    Using 'changeip -checkhostname' verifies that the hostname and DNS hostname are both myserver.mydomain.private.
    I set the realm to myserver.mydomain.private (though the default was myserver.local) based on the advice of another poster to this forum. Kerberos.app reveals something interesting: the kdc and admin servers are both myserver.local and the domains are .local and local. I tried changing all instances of 'local' to 'mydomain.private' to see if that would solve the problem. No luck.
    I verified on a client that 'host myserver' and 'host 10.0.22.201' return proper DNS and reverse DNS resolutions.
    Hopefully one of the gurus out there will be able to help me out.
    Thanks,

    I gathered together some log information for when I try to authenticate user 'diradmin' in Workgroup Manager. You can see from the log messages that this authentication took 4 seconds. There's an interesting error message in slapd.log (see below) but it doesn't say what it's looking for in the keytab that it's not finding. Grr! I've provided a listing of the principles in my keytab. I haven't monkeyed around with it at all -- this is just what resulted from promoting the server to an Open Directory Master.

  • How do I unbind a local user from an Open Directory user?

    I have a couple MacBook Pros running Leopard that successfully bound a local account to a corresponding Open Directory account using Directory Utility.
    I had to re-install Leopard Server (using Standard configuration) and re-create Open Directory accounts. Now these laptops are unable to bind to the new Open Directory accounts. They receive an error that the Open Directory user ID and password provided is incorrect. In addition the local user can no longer reset or change their password. I'm thinking this is because their local accounts are still bound to the old Open Directory accounts that no longer exist. Is there are way to unbind a local account in Leopard that has been bound to an Open Directory account via the Directory Utility.

    What account are you using to bind the machine? When binding you must authenticate using the OD admin login which is usually setup as diradmin or as the current client you are logged into the machine with, but this client needs to exist on the OD server.

  • Lion: All Open Directory users obliterated

    After a rough migration from SLS, I've been running Lion Server successfully for a couple of weeks now.  However, this morning I saw that the file sharing services were down.  When I brought the server up on the monitor, the Finder was frozen solid.  I had to do a hard restart, and once it came up, all the Open Directory users are gone.  Only local users remain.  When I attempt to open the LDAP directory in Workgroup Manager it throws up a -14006 error.
    I'm going to attempt to rebuild the machine from a backup last night, but I'm wondering if anyone has any (quicker) advice.
    I'm tempted to just try and copy /var/db/openldap from the backup image over to the server, but I'm afraid it'll simply explode.  Is there a better alternative?  I don't have a current backup archive of *just* the open directory stuff...

    Restoring from a backup image "fixed" it of course, but I'm still curious how to restore the open directory database from a mirrored partition (i.e. without the use of an explicite restore from an open directory backup)

  • Issue with Active Directory User Target Recon

    Hi ,
    I am facing an issue with Active Directory User Target Recon
    My environment is OIM 11g R2 with BP03 patch applied
    AD Connector is activedirectory-11.1.1.5 with bundle patch 14190610 applied
    In my Target there are around 28000 users out of which 14000 have AD account (includes Provisioned,Revoked,Disabled accounts)
    When i am running Active Directory User Target Recon i am not putting any filter cleared the batch start and batch size parameters and ran the recon job .Job ran successfully but it stopped after processing around 3000 users only.
    Retried the job two three times but every time it is stopping after processing some users but not processing all the users.
    Checked the log file oimdiagnostic logs and Connector server logs cannot see any errors in it.
    Checked the user profile of users processed can see AD account provisioned for users
    My query is why this job is not processing allthe users.Please point if i am missing some thing .
    thanks in advance

    Check the connector server load when you are running the recon. Last time I checked the connector, the way it was written is that it loads all the users from AD into the connector server memory and then sends them to OIM. So if the number was huge, then the connector server errored out and did not send data to OIM. We then did recon based on OUs to load/link all the users into OIM. Check the connector server system logs and check for memory usage etc.

  • Cannot find bookmarks - open directory user

    We have LDAP v3 at our school. A teacher logged on to a different computer and her bookmarks were missing. Since she is an open directory user, I believe her books should follow her. We were trying to figure out where on a Mac the bookmarks are stored...and we could not figure it out.
    We see the profile where an internet search told us the bookmarks were -- but we could not see them. What specific folder are they in and what is the name of the file/folder that contains the bookmarks?

    The name of the file is '''places.sqlite'''.

  • How to create email users with open directory?

    I'm trying to used a mac mini as a mail server for my domains. It works well for SMTP server/gateway for multiple locally networked systems running Lion, Mountain Lion and Maverick. The server is running Mavericks 10.9.2 server 3.1.1.
    I need to add email users to it, so I tried Open Directory. I added a user with an email address with a domain listed in the mail server's domains. Then used the server app to give the user permission to use the mail service and selected to have the mail be saved on the server.
    However, even though I set the mail server to accept any authentication method, I couldn't log in to get mail (via IMAP) from any email client on my computer. I tried Mail and Sparrow.
    The IMAP log on the server says 'Disconnected (auth process communication failure)'. I tried everything that I could from the server app and the workgroup manager app. When using 'Mail.app', the IMAP log shows an empty user name. Trying with Sparrow shows the user name in the log, but still fails.
    I restricted authentication to Open Directory, but that didn't help either. Tried with Secure Connection and without.
    Am I missing something? Is there anything that I need to do to make the server accept IMAP connections? The mail service is running and handling SMTP.
    The domain has an MX record pointing the server's domain name.
    All the services are secured with a self signed certificate.
    Doing a CLI check with 'sudo serveradmin fullstatus mail' results in the following:
    [snip]
    mail:protocolsArray:_array_index:0:status = "ON"
    mail:protocolsArray:_array_index:0:kind = "INCOMING"
    mail:protocolsArray:_array_index:0:protocol = "IMAP"
    mail:protocolsArray:_array_index:0:state = "RUNNING"
    mail:protocolsArray:_array_index:0:service = "MailAccess"
    mail:protocolsArray:_array_index:0:error = ""
    [snip]

    Didn't find a way to edit my post above.
    UPDATE:
    Trying to log in with Thunderbird showed differently in the IMAP log. It's user disabled instead.
    imap-login: Info: Disconnected (user disabled): user=<username>, method=CRAM-MD5, rip=192.168.8.101, lip=192.168.8.99, TLS

    I work for a school and we're undertaking the large task of moving from Xserves running 10.6.8 to Mac Minis running 10.9. I have a lot of experience with OS X Server (I held ACSA up until they ditched it, and ACTC through the current OS) but I've hit a fairly large snag in configuring our DNS server. We currently run DNS via an AD server that is being retired at the end of the summer, so this is the first time our DNS will be Mac-based. That said, our network is ridiculously simple as we are a very small school. For the most part it's a flat network using the same IP range for our wired and wireless internal clients (we do have a vlan for guests but that's through Aerohive). I configured the DNS by hand, recreating the entries in our AD server (there were only about a dozen) and then adding in things that should have been there in the first place (e.g. printers and some other devices with static IPs that I'd like FQDNs for). Everything seemed to be working fine...until trying to log into Open Directory accounts.
    For some background, the DNS server running 10.9 was the first server we upgraded and it was a completely clean install. We run DHCP on another Mac Server currently running 10.6.8 and it does have the proper OD server listed. All DNS entries for the OD server match our current DNS server. The issue is that it's taking some users 5-6 tries to log in with their network accounts. The errors they receive range from the login window shaking to it stating the user cannot log in at this time. This seems to be worse on client machines running 10.9. but it's appearing on machines running 10.6.8-10.9.3.
    In my troubleshooting, I found that if I log in as a local user to one of those machines and do a dig for the OD server the results vary, this is where it gets weird. For example, if I dig ourodserver.ourdomain.org it will sometimes return host not found or it will sometimes resolve. If I ping the same thing it will sometimes work (even after stating it cannot resolve the host) and it will sometimes fail. If I then try a dig for the .local (e.g. ourodserver.local) it also yields the same varied results. However, on every machine that I've tested if I then open a Finder window and navigate to the server via the "Shared" menu and connect I have no trouble connecting and then magically my digs and pings in terminal work. If I revert DNS back to point to our old Windows server the issue goes away. I have meticulously combed through that server many many times now and am not seeing any missed entries. Any idea what could be causing this?

    You must have a working DNS service, and the server's hostname must match its fully-qualified domain name. To confirm, select the server by name in the sidebar of the Server application window, then select the Overview tab. Click the Edit button on the Host Name line. On the Accessing your Server sheet, Domain Name should be selected. Change the Host Name, if necessary. The server must have at least a three-level name (e.g. "server.yourdomain.com"), and the name must not be in the ".local" top-level domain, which is reserved for Bonjour.
    The primary DNS server used by the server must be 127.0.0.1 (that is, itself) unless you're using another server for internal DNS. The only DNS server set on the clients should be the internal one, which they should get from DHCP if applicable.
