Disabling 'Use UNC Path' in AD Binding via script - not working properly

[mattt934]

Hi there,

 

Have a small fleet on 2011 MBP's running 10.9.4 bound to Active Directory.

We have recently upgraded our SMB fileshares to DFS and wish to disable the 'Use UNC Path' function from AD as it seems to be causing issues logging in.

 

I am using the following syntax:

sudo dsconfigad -useuncpath disable

 

I run this locally on the machine and terminal outputs 'Settings changed successfully' but Directory Utility does not update, even after a restart and the setting remains.

Have also tried running this script via Casper as a login/network state change policy but no dice.

 

Any tips in the right direction would be highly appreciated!
