it did. For more information, see “User Account Changes” on page 106 and “User Access

Setting Up Newly Imported Users’ Macs
If some users already have Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard set up, and you import their
user accounts from a directory server, your server can send an email inviting them to
join the server. Snow Leopard users can click a button in the invitation email to have
their applications automatically set up to get services from your server.
Note: To receive an invitation email, an imported user must have an email address in
the user’s account on the directory server.
When a Snow Leopard user clicks the button in the invitation email, the Accounts pane
of System Preferences opens. It asks for the name and password of the user account on
your server.
For information about how the Mac is set up, see “User Account Changes” on page 106
and “User Access to Services” on page 107.
