I’m just coming down out of the Jobs RDF. I’m wondering, will there be some OS X Server equivalent to the new .Mac service - MobileMe?
I’d love to be able to deploy push email and push calendar to my users.
I’ve previously written about problems with Leopard server and forwarding of virtual hosted domain email. My solution was somewhat inelegant and errors were written into the mail.log. Since that time I’ve found a solution that works and generates no errors. It also has the added benefit of being entirely within Server Admin.
Here’s what to do.

Yeah, I did something stupid and had to reinstall my server OS — again. I thought I’d be OK but my mail backup was about a day old. I’ve used mailbfr before and it worked great but this time I kept getting errors. It seemed that mailbfr wasn’t copying over the skipstamp file.
What I did […]
Due to unforeseen circumstances I accidentally trashed my server installation. Don’t ask me for details but I think I accidentally unloaded all my launch daemons. I figured no big deal just restart the machine and everything’s fine. Not so fine.
I restart and my mail server doesn’t seem to be working correctly.
Several reinstalls later and I […]
OK, my problem with my webmail and my Thunderbird user are fixed. Here’s what happened. When I was setting up my server install with the AppleCare rep on the phone he said to check CRAM-MD5 and Plain for authentication. This inside of Server Admin.
It turns out that the default authentication method for SquirrelMail is login […]
Peter Sichel of Sustainable Softworks is a genius. Seriously. He’s not only just updated his USB to Ethernet Adapters for Mac OS X to work with the recently released Apple-branded USB Ethernet adapter, but he sent me a comment letting me know.
I’ve just installed the USBAx8817x 1.0.3b10 release and it seems to be working.
Peter emailed […]
Well, I’m going to try and clone my server and run it off the booted external firewire drive until I get my server’s ethernet port fixed.
I can only hope it goes well. Wish me luck. And yes I’m backing up.
Well, after spending several hours on the phone with AppleCare is seems that my mini’s ethernet port went belly up at the exact same time I tried to install the Apple USB Ethernet adapter.
It seems my ethernet port recognizes a connection but just doesn’t transfer data. I did boot from an external firewire drive and […]
Don’t use this adapter on any Mac except the MacBook Air
At least not yet. Here’s why. The Apple USB Ethernet adapter loads just fine but it identifies itself with a BSD Device Name of en0. The problem with this is that your Mac’s built-in ethernet adapter also is identified as en0.
I bought this to be […]
OK, to put it mildly the Workgroup Manager and Email in Leopard Server has some quirks and problems.
I and others noted that a user whose email was set to forward would give a 550 error about not being able to access the users mailbox or the mailbox wasn’t set up. Well, since the mail is […]
