How to Use This Guide
Setting Up Mac OS X Server for the First Time
If you haven’t installed and set up Mac OS X Server, do so now.
•
Refer to
Mac OS X Server Getting Started for Version 10.3 or Later,
the document that
came with your software, for instructions on server installation and setup. For many
environments, this document provides all the information you need to get your
server up, running, and available for initial use.
•
Review this guide to determine which services you’d like to refine and expand, to
identify new services you’d like to set up, and to learn about the server applications
you’ll use during these activities.
•
Read specific chapters to learn how to continue setting up individual services. Pay
particular attention to the information in these sections: “Setup Overview,” “Before
You Begin,” and “Setting Up for the First Time.”
Getting Help for Everyday Management Tasks
If you want to change settings, monitor services, view service logs, or do any other day-
to-day administration task, you can find step-by-step procedures by using the on-
screen help available with server administration programs. While all the network
services’ administration tasks are also documented in the network services
administration guide, sometimes it’s more convenient to retrieve information in
onscreen help form while using your server.
