OS X MAIL XSERVER SETUP FULL
When creating network users, you must give them a full name, a short name, and a password, and you can also enter an e-mail address for them-the Contacts service pulls from Open Directory to autofill names and e-mail addresses, so be sure to input the information just as you'd like to see it. You can view and create all these types of users in the Users pane.
Three different kinds of users can live on your Open Directory server: local user accounts that can only log into the server itself, network user accounts that can log into computers bound to your directory and make use of your server's services, and network service accounts that can only be used to access services. Once you've finished this step, you're basically done with setup you can turn to the Users and Groups sections to begin building your directory. We'll stick with the default "diradmin" username for our purposes, but the account can be named anything you want. While setting up a new Open Directory, you'll be asked to set up a directory administrator account that's separate from the administrator account used to manage the server itself. If you have multiple Open Directory servers, you can use the Locales feature to assign different servers to different network subnets to help with load balancing. If any of your servers go down, your client computers should automatically fail over to one of the working replicas until the borked machine comes back up. We'll be creating a new Open Directory domain for our testbed, but note that you can also bind one Open Directory server to another to create a replica server which will provide redundancy in the case of server failure.
