OSX server, Wiki and Active Directory

I had a lot of issues enabling a wiki service with a OSX server in a Active Directory enviroment.
Given the case you have an Active Directory with all the authentications (users, groups, etc) and you want to implement a OSX wiki server, It wont be an easy feat.

This is what I did:

1) I began with a clean install of the OSX Server, and configured it to be a Open Directory Master.
2) Then, I binded the OSX with the Active Directory, and added the AD to the search and auth. policy
3) With the WorkGroup Manager, in OSX, I created a workgroup with the users I want to allow to use the wiki, and gave it permission to use the Wiki resource.
4) Using the Workgroup's MemberList, I clicked on the + simbol, selected Active Directory from the little globe icon over the list, and drag and dropped the users from the AD I wanted to have wiki access
5) Saved and closed the WorkGroup Manager, opened the Server Admin.
6) Added iCal and Web services to the list, then turned iCal on (should get up automatically) and turned on the Wiki service on the web, then started the web.
7) Then you must follow this procedure: Apple Support TS1619
8) Wait a minute or two, then access your webpage using the domain you gave the web page (Will give 404 error when trying to access the wiki group if you don't) and you should be able to authenticate using the Active Directory users you added to the workgroup
