I ask because I configured and installed a profile for a network account on my Macbook Air (10.9) to create a synchronized Mobility Home on a Mac Mini server (10.8).
However, I cannot login as this user on the server or my Air, because I receive the message that the home already exists. This occurs even though I have removed the devices from profile manager and the user from the group.
I expect this is because I have not updated the configuration profile on the account, but I cannot do so because I cannot log in as that user.
So, I'd like to purge any instance of these configurations. So far, I've tried the following:
- Deleting
/Library/Preferences/DirectoryService/
- Clearing the MCX Cache as per this Apple KB article
I am asking specifically how to clear these configs, but if it comes up, yes, I have deleted the home folder on the Air and the Mini, and no, neither have a local account with the same name.
