Frank Have you got a DNS up and running with forward and reverse mappings for the server? I you haven't, there is a whole heap of Open Directory stuff that won't work. Also, just to make things really fun, once Open Directory has been set up without a DNS, it is nearly impossible to get it to acknowledge the existence of one... Easiest way to get round it is to set up a DNS on one of the client machines for now, and use that to re-set up the server machine. There are a few bits on the apple support site about getting the kerberos stuff working again, but not much about the OD stuff Sorry to break the bad news, but there it is.
