Featuring the renowned Mac OS X interface, Mac OS X Server streamlines your management tasks with applications and utilities that are robust yet easy to use. Apple’s award-winning server software brings people and data together in innovative ways. Whether you want to empower users with instant messaging and blogging, gain greater control over email, reduce the cost and hassle of updating software, or build your own distributed supercomputer, Mac OS X Server v10.4 has the tools you need. The power and simplicity of Mac OS X Server are a re. ection of Apple’s operating system strategy—one that favors open industry standards over proprietary technologies. It begins with a UNIX-based foundation built around the Mach microkernel and the latest advances from the open source BSD community. This foundation provides Mac OS X Server with a stable, high-performance, 64-bit computing platform for deploying server-based applications and services. Open source made easy Tiger Server is the . fth major release of Mac OS X Server, providing standards-based workgroup and Internet services without the complexity of Linux or the cost inherent in other UNIX-based solutions. Instead of developing proprietary server technologies, Apple has built on the best open source projects: Samba 3, OpenLDAP, Kerberos, Post. x, Apache, Jabber, SpamAssassin, and more. Mac OS X Server integrates these robust technologies and enhances them with a uni. ed, consistent management interface. Powerful administrative tools permit novices to con. gure and maintain core network services, while providing the advanced features and functionality required by experienced IT professionals. Because it is built on open standards, Mac OS X Server is compatible with existing network and computing infrastructures. It uses native protocols to deliver directory services, . le and printer sharing, and secure network access to Mac, Windows, and Linux clients. A standards-based directory services architecture o! ers centralized management of network resources using any LDAP server—even proprietary servers such as Microsoft Active Directory. The open source UNIX-based foundation makes it easy to port and deploy existing tools to Mac OS X Server. The Universal release of Mac OS X Server runs on both Intel- and PowerPC-based Mac desktop and Xserve systems.

This latest release incorporates more than 100 open source projects and o! ers more than 200 new features. The key new features include: 64-bit applications. Mac OS X Server v10.4 brings the power of 64-bit computing to mainstream servers. Its 64-bit addressing o! ers access to massive amounts of memory, and its 64-bit optimized math libraries provide high-performance, extremely accurate mathematical calculations. These capabilities make Mac OS X Server the ideal platform for the most demanding databases and scienti. c, technical, and creative computing tasks. Access control lists. To provide greater . le sharing . exibility in mixed-platform work- . ows, Apple has added support for access control lists (ACLs). With . le system ACLs, any . le object can be assigned multiple users and groups, including groups within groups. Each . le object can also be assigned both allow and deny permissions, as well as a granular set of permissions for administrative control, read, write, and delete operations.

Software Update Server. Now you can decide whether the users in your organization are noti. ed of new Apple software updates. This gives administrators control over which updates and patches users install. By hosting your own Apple software update proxy/cache server, you will also save on network costs. Instead of each client computer having to download an update from Apple, all your clients can obtain updates from a single copy cached on your software update server. iChat Server.
