Mac OS X 10.5: Duplicate computer name alert when binding to Open Directory
When attempting to bind a client to Open Directory, a client may receive an alert that the computer already exists. Looking up the computer in Open Directory may return a duplicate "LDKC:SHA1" entry. This may occur when a system is installed from a NetInstall image that was created after the point in the Mac OS X install where the com.apple.kerberos.kdc certificate had been created; so each new imaged system has the same certificate and LKDC:SHA1 hash.
I guess Mac has default bash. Then I copy my code to another comp and run it...And it gives me an error like "bad substitution"....
How I can change my code??? Never had before this kind of situation. Help please.

Title says it all. I am doing a little research for a blog I want to write up on my website about different OS platforms. One thing that I am trying to figure out, is that would it appeal to people to load OS X on their PC, and would they be willing to pay for it?
If so, would you even... (17 Replies)
opendirectoryd(8) BSD System Manager's Manual opendirectoryd(8)NAME
opendirectoryd -- is a launchd(8) job for client access to local or remote directory systems
SYNOPSIS
opendirectoryd [--version]
DESCRIPTION
opendirectoryd is a launchd(8) job which replaces "DirectoryService" as a core part of the Open Directory technology. Several modules are
provided that allow access to existing directory systems:
o Active Directory
o LDAP
o Local Database
o NIS
Modules
opendirectoryd modules have specific capabilities:
Authentication password verification, password changes, etc.
Connection general connections used for queries, record modifications, etc.
Discovery location and prioritization of servers to contact (a.k.a., service discovery)
Unspecified a generic module used for unspecified purpose (usually to extend capabilities)
Third party plugins developed for "DirectoryService" are supported via dspluginhelperd(8).
Open Directory
Open Directory is a technology which includes a client API abstraction layer, a directory server, and the opendirectoryd daemon. This allows
clients to utilize a single API to access a variety of directory servers simultaneously or configure their own directory server.
Open Directory forms the foundation of how Mac OS X accesses all authoritative configuration information (users, groups, mounts, managed
desktop data, etc.). This allows use of virtually any directory system via Apple and third party modules.
Configuration of opendirectoryd is done via "System Preferences" under the "Users & Groups" preference pane. Advanced settings are available
by using "Open Directory Utility..." within "Users & Groups" preference pane.
More information is available from the Open Directory website:
http://developer.apple.com/darwin/projects/opendirectory/
Open Directory Server
Open Directory Server utilizes OpenLDAP which is included as part of Mac OS X Client, Mac OS X Server, and Darwin. OpenLDAP provides a robust
and scalable platform for serving directory-based information for both standalone and networked systems.
NFSv4 Domain name
The following will set the default domain name used to map user and group identities in NFSv4 client/server operations.
dscl . -create Config/NFSv4Domain RealName <Example.com>
This command requires root privileges.
FILES
Files are stored in various locations for opendirectoryd depending on use. A list of folders and files are shown below.
System files provided by Apple and should only change with operating system updates:
/System/Library/OpenDirectory/Configurations/

/System/Library/OpenDirectory/record-schema.plist
OpenDirectory record/attribute schema
/System/Library/OpenDirectory/permissions.plist
OpenDirectory global record/attribute permissions
User defined files:
/Library/OpenDirectory/Templates/ templates used for node styles (module layout and mappings)
/Library/OpenDirectory/Mappings/ record/attribute mapping tables
Files that change periodically are located in:
/Library/Preferences/OpenDirectory/Configurations/
node configuration files
/Library/Preferences/OpenDirectory/DynamicData/
dynamic data stored by nodes
/Library/Preferences/OpenDirectory/.LogDebugAtStartOnce
enables debug logging until process exits or system is rebooted (reboot required)
