Apple Mac OS X 10.5 Server
Mac OS X 10.5 Server is the sixth major update to Apple’s server operating system, and Apple’s strongest server OS to date. Updated across the board, with a slew of major new features, it could be almost everything a small- to medium-sized business needs in a server OS.
Services
If you asked Mac IT people what previous versions of Mac OS X Server have been missing, a calendar server would be at the top of most lists. Mac OS X 10.5 Server fills that gap.
For the most part, iCal Server is easy to set up. The only big problem I had was trying to get delegation—which allows users to access and edit each others’ calendars—to work. Part of the problem could have been my particular setup (I have Mac OS X Server participating in a Windows Active Directory network). Even though the problems aren’t endemic to iCal Server, be aware that delegation in iCal Server can be fragile.
The other big issue with iCal Server is in its support for the CalDAV group-scheduling standard. Right now, iCal 3.0—the version that comes with OS X 10.5 Leopard—is the best CalDAV client for the Mac. That means clients on your network will have to be running OS X 10.5 to get the full benefits of OS X 10.5 Server’s calendaring services.
If your company is all-Mac, that iCal-requirement probably won’t be a big issue; just make sure all your clients have upgraded to Leopard. But if you’re in a mixed environment, or if you’re switching from some other group-calendaring platform (such as Exchange), iCal Server could be limiting. Microsoft Outlook doesn’t directly support CalDAV; the plug-ins that would allow this are still being developed. Without Outlook support, trying to combine Windows calendaring clients with iCal Server is more work that many small- or medium-sized companies will want to take on.
Mac OS X 10.5 Server also provides several improvements to its iChat service. For many companies, its new logging tools will be the biggest change. If you have to deal with the myriad corporate regulations about data retention, chat logs are a requirement if you’re going to provide IM services on your network. You could log chats in Mac OS X 10.4 Server, but it required third-party software and setup was not simple. With Mac OS X 10.5, logging just another option in the administration interface. The new iChat Server also offers “store and forward” messaging, so offline users can collect instant messages. Finally, you can set up iChat server to talk to other IM services via federation; unfortunately, the only major public IM services with which iChat Server can currently federate is Google’s.
In an all-Mac environment, iChat Server is a great way to implement instant messaging. But as with the calendaring service, it’s trickier if you’re in a heterogeneous environment. Since iChat server is based on the Jabber protocol, you have to use a Jabber-compatible client. While there are many such clients available for text chat functionality, support for file transfers and A/V is more hit and miss.
Mac OS X 10.4 Server offered decent, if limited, support for blogging. With Mac OS X 10.5 Server, Apple has revamped that support. It’s easy for network users to set up wikis (collaboratively edited documents) quickly, with the ability to track changes, revisions and users. Wikis are perfect for creating company documentation; for example, I use them to develop online IT manuals. Mac OS X 10.5 Server’s implementation is simple to use; it doesn’t, for example, require any special coding. You can define different levels of access, so you can lock down who gets to write and edit.
Administration and Installation
Mac OS X 10.5 Server makes it easier to implement these and other services by offering several new installation types; these let you install Mac OS X Server without having to manually configure every detail of every service. The “Simple” and “Workgroup” installation types allow you to quickly set up servers either in standalone mode or as part of an existing directory service.
You manage these new installation types using the new Server Preferences administration utility. Server Preferences looks and works like Mac OS X’s System Preferences, allowing you to manage services quickly and relatively easily. Neither the Simple nor the Workgroup installation offer access to every service Mac OS X 10.5 Server provides, but that’s the idea: that you don’t need every service. To access all of Mac OS X 10.5 Server’s services, you can still use the Advanced installation type.
These new installation types are handy, but they do have some problems. For example, if you upgrade a Workgroup installation to Advanced, you can’t revert it to Workgroup. To administer Advanced installations, you have to use the Server Admin application instead of the simpler Server Preferences.
That said, Server Admin has received a major facelift. The UI has been changed to better deal with large numbers of servers, and it has better monitoring features to help you keep tabs on those servers. There are also new Dashboard widgets that show you the state of your servers at a glance.
But the management interface isn’t yet seamless. For example, if you want to manage services, you use Server Admin. But if you want to manage users, groups, and machines, you need to use Workgroup Manager. Both Server Admin and Workgroup Manager rely on Open Directory, Apple’s LDAP-based directory service. But if you want to see the actual directory records, you can only use Workgroup Manager or the command line.
The Workgroup Manager interface itself is quirky. For example, when you increase the size of its window, only one part of the window actually expands. You can’t view your directory as a directory; you can only view individual containers within the directory. In Active Directory and Novell’s eDirectory, moving users or machines between groups and containers is a simple drag-and-drop operation; Mac OS X 10.5 Server requires a more complicated multi-step process in the GUI or use of the command line. Finally, you can’t use Mac OS X 10.5 Server’s administrator tools to manage Mac OS X 10.4 Server or older without upgrading those servers to Mac OS X Server 10.4.11; that limits its usefulness as the backbone of a larger network.
Mac OS X 10.5 Server has been improved in some ways when it comes to working in heterogeneous environments. Active Directory integration now allows both server and client versions of Mac OS X 10.5 to work correctly with Windows SMB packet signing. In addition, Apple has introduced the concept of “augmented” users, or users imported from other directory services. This makes managing Mac users in non-Apple environments easier. In my testing, I found I could manage Active Directory users within my Mac environment almost as easily as Mac-only users.
Macworld’s Buying Advice
Is Mac OS X 10.5 Server worth the $499 retail price (for the 10 file-sharing user version; an unlimited client version, no CALs required, sells for $999)? (If you buy a new Xserve, you get it for free.) It depends. If you don’t already have a directory service or dedicated servers, and are just now thinking about implementing such things for the first time, Mac OS X 10.5 Server is a compelling product; just keep in mind that some of its services don’t work as well as they should in a heterogeneous environment. On the other hand, if you’re an experienced administrator, you’ll likely be frustrated by the limitations in Apple’s GUI server tools; fortunately, OS X Server is based on Unix, so you can have all the control you want via the command line.

macOS Server, formerly Mac OS X Server and OS X Server, is a separately sold operating system add-on which provides additional server programs along with management and administration tools for macOS.
Prior to version 10.7 (Lion), Mac OS X Server was a separate but similar Unix[3] server operating system from Apple Inc.architecturally identical to its desktop counterpart Mac OS X. With the release of version 10.7 (Lion), Mac OS X and Mac OS X Server were combined into one release. A separate 'server' operating system is no longer sold; the server-specific server applications and work group management and administration software tools from Mac OS X Server are now offered as macOS Server, an add-on package for macOS sold through the Mac App Store[4] for just $19.99 as of June 2019, along with Workgroup Manager 10.8, available from the Apple support web site.[5]
These tools simplify access to key network services, including a mail transfer agent, AFP and SMB servers, an LDAP server, a domain name server, and others. Also included (particularly in later versions) are numerous additional services and the tools to manage them, such as web server, wiki server, chat server, calendar server, and many others.
- 2Versions
Overview[edit]
Mac OS X Server was provided as the operating system for Xserve computers, rack mountedserver computers designed by Apple. Also, it was optionally pre-installed on the Mac Mini and Mac Pro and was sold separately for use on any Macintosh computer meeting its minimum requirements.
macOS Server is based on an open source foundation called Darwin and uses open industry standards and protocols. It included services and applications for file sharing, sharing contact information and calendars, schedule events, send secure instant messages, conduct live video conferences, send and receive email, contribute to and comment in wikis, publish a company-wide blog, produce and distribute podcasts, and set up websites.
Versions[edit]
Mac OS X Server 1.0 (Rhapsody)[edit]
The first version of Mac OS X was Mac OS X Server 1.0. Mac OS X Server 1.0 – 1.2v3 were based on Rhapsody, a hybrid of OPENSTEP from NeXT Computer and Mac OS 8.5.1. The GUI looked like a mixture of Mac OS 8's Platinum appearance with OPENSTEP's NeXT-based interface. It included a runtime layer called Blue Box for running legacy Mac OS-based applications within a separate window. There was discussion of implementing a 'transparent blue box' which would intermix Mac OS applications with those written for Rhapsody's Yellow Box environment, but this would not happen until Mac OS X's Classic environment. Apple File Services, Macintosh Manager, QuickTime Streaming Server, WebObjects, and NetBoot were included with Mac OS X Server 1.0 – 1.2v3. It could not use FireWire devices.
Mac OS X Server 10.0 (Cheetah)[edit]
Released: May 21, 2001
Mac OS X Server 10.0 included the new Aqua user interface, Apache, PHP, MySQL, Tomcat, WebDAV support, Macintosh Manager, and NetBoot.

The 10.2 Mac OS X Server release includes updated Open Directory user and file management, which with this release is based on LDAP, beginning the deprecation of the NeXT-originated NetInfo architecture. The new Workgroup Manager interface improved configuration significantly. The release also saw major updates to NetBoot and NetInstall. Many common network services are provided such as NTP, SNMP, web server (Apache), mail server (Postfix and Cyrus), LDAP (OpenLDAP), AFP, and print server. The inclusion of Samba version 3 allows tight integration with Windows clients and servers. MySQL v4.0.16 and PHP v4.3.7 are also included.
Mac OS X Server 10.3 (Panther)[edit]
Released: October 24, 2003
The 10.3 Mac OS X Server release includes updated Open Directory user and file management, which with this release is based on LDAP, beginning the deprecation of the NeXT-originated NetInfo architecture. The new Workgroup Manager interface improved configuration significantly. Many common network services are provided such as NTP, SNMP, web server (Apache), mail server (Postfix and Cyrus), LDAP (OpenLDAP), AFP, and print server. The inclusion of Samba version 3 allows tight integration with Windows clients and servers. MySQL v4.0.16 and PHP v4.3.7 are also included.[citation needed]

Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion Server)[edit]
Campbell biology in focus 2nd edition download. Released: July 20, 2011
In releasing the developer preview of Mac OS X Lion in February 2011, Apple indicated that beginning with Lion, Mac OS X Server would be bundled with the operating system and would not be marketed as a separate product.[10] However, a few months later, the company said it would instead sell the server components as a US$49.99 add-on to Lion, distributed through the Mac App Store (as well as Lion itself).[11] The combined cost of an upgrade to Lion and the purchase of the OS X Server add-on, which costs approximately US$50,[7] was nonetheless significantly lower than the retail cost of Snow Leopard Server (US$499).
Lion Server came with unlimited client licenses as did Snow Leopard Server.
Lion Server includes new versions of iCal Server, Wiki Server, and Mail Server.[12] More significantly, Lion Server can be used for iOS mobile device management.
