Creating a mobile account after the fact: Mac

If you need to enable a mobile account after you have already set up a user's network account (and didn't create the mobile account at first log in) do the following:

On the client, log in as the local Administrator, and in Terminal
issue the command:

sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/ManagedClient.app/Contents/
Resources/createmobileaccount -vsn myusername /my/homedirectory

The variables "myusername" and "/my/homedirectory" are specific to
the account you are working with.

If you don't want syncing enabled, the argument is -vSn
