“Needless to say this is a Very Good Thing as admin-type persons like me need this software to review and prepare for implementation over the coming months,” an information technology manager who asked to remain anonymous told MacCentral. “I for one am looking forward to replacing my crappy NT version 4.0 servers in a few areas with Mac OS X boxes running great server software. OS X clients cannot work directly with Services for Macintosh under the older NT 4.x and I am NOT going to be upgrading these machines to Win2k.”
Mac OS X Server is designed to combine the strengths of AppleShare IP with the power of Mac OS X, integrating services for file sharing, Internet and Web serving, networking, client management, email — and more. For details, go to the Mac OS X Server Web site.
