- AD access is managed via Directory Utility. That is, the MacBooks
can be bound to the AD Directory(in our case, the OD Directory as well)
- Print management can be managed via Workgroup Manager which is part
of the Server Admin software
- We use Deploy Studio(see my last email). The binds to AD and OD are
done in the imaging process. The machines are renamed as well. It
works very well.
