Now I'm sure this wasn't a problem to set up with Tiger Server...

I have set up some user accounts on my new Leopard Server machine,
given them home folders, made them automountable, identified the
directory server on my client machines, allowed network logins... but I
can't see any network accounts at login on my Leopard client machines.
Just the local accounts as normal. The idea is to have portable home
folders for my network and as I say, at one time I had this setup under
Tiger. Can anyone suggest what I might have missed?

Thanks,

Ian.

In your server, using Workgroup Manager, which domain did you define your
network accounts in ? A common mistake is to create the accounts in the
local domain, not one reachable over the network.
