| [Network] OD AD and local user: same accounts Hello.
2008 R2 AD
10.7.5 OD
What are the implications of creating account in AD which is also locally on a Mac computer?
I'm running into some weird issues: unable to login, unable to install, ... and I believe recently an administrator level account was created in AD which also is on local Macs.
thanks. |

I do not know, but since you are having problems logic would say yes!  Sorry, not helpful, but I could not resist.

I cannot deny anything I did not say.

If the local name is the same as the AD name the Mac will never login with the AD name. The default behavior is to stop after the first match and not look any further and local always comes before network accounts. |

Directory Utility shows local, then od, then ad. |
