NetInfo Manager Error

Merdyn · 02-13-2002, 04:09 PM

I've been working (carefully) in NetInfo Manager. Whenever I make a change (such as changing my password hint here instead of in the Users control panel) and save the changes, and then select "Reset all NetInfo Manager Domains on Local Host" from the "Options" menu, I get the following error message:

Error

Can't find process ID for "nibindd"!

I tried restarting the computer to see if that would fix the problem, but no luck. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chuck

According to /System/Library/StartupItems/DirectoryServices/DirectoryServices, nibindd is only run if you serve a domain other than local or your domain is served to machines other than itself. I'd say nibindd isn't running and doesn't need to be, so it's one of those ignore it issues...
