Unable to log in to a bound Mac (Tiger only)

Symptom: A user on a bound Mac is unable to log in; they receive the "shaky" log-in box at each authentication attempt. Other users can log into the machine and the same user can log into other machines.

Fix: Log on as admin and open Netinfo Manager and select "Users" in the middle column. In the right-hand column the user should be listed ONCE. If the user is listed TWICE, delete both users. Restart and the user should be able to log back in
