Mac OS X Server Essentials

This reference to Mac OS X Server v.10.5 Leopard takes network administrators, server support technicians, and ardent Mac users inside Leopard Server, covering everything from installing and configuring Mac OS X Server to the fine points of networking technologies, service administration, customizing users and groups, and providing web hosting and collaborative services such as wikis and weblogs. You'll learn how to set user, workgroup, and computer policies; tailor the different services to your needs; efficiently deploy your settings across multiple servers; and more. Keyed to the learning objectives of the Mac OS X Server Essentials exam, the lessons in this self-paced volume serve as a perfect supplement to Apple's own training class, as well as a first-rate primer for computer server support personnel who need to support and maintain Mac OS X Server as part of their jobs.
