Is there any hope or plan for a server version of amd enabled os X ?

Personally, I still think the Windows has better potential with servers than Mac OSX whereas Linux dominates the industry. lol

Linux & Unix based Operating Systems dominate the Server industry, no doubt!

So ask yourself, what's Mac OS X? I'd like to call it an improved Version of Unix.

For me, it connects the power of unix with a perfect GUI, good Innovations,
good software and a system structure which is very easy to understand, and to develope for.

For both User Systems or Servers, Mac OS X is the best choice to me.

@Putta, I agree with you. The foundation of UNIX in a Mac OSX environment is indeed stronger and let's not forget, securer.

Hey, maybe we all can collaborate, leave our friend Zephyroth on the side, let him rest, and all of us can make a Server Version. It''ll be more like introducing a new Linux distribution!, ha. lol =)

I tried to upgrade my client install to server (I have an original Leopard Server DVD) but it hosed my install.

I really would like to have a server version running on my two Amd servers.

Is there a PPF available to patch an original Server DVD?

Guys, I have managed to get my AMD machine to run OSX Server!!

I'll post more details how later, but basically it involves installing a mpkg off the server dvd. After all OSX Server is just Leopard with a server layer installed on top.

Currently trying to update from 10.5 to 10.5.4 using ASU...

I really want to know how you did it Voyn1x.

From where did you start? Zephyroth rev2?

When I tried it it killed my install.

which mpkg? the mpkg I see is "ServerAdministrationSoftware.mpkg"... but there are three other "Server" .pkg files: "ServerAdminTools.pkg", "ServerEssentials.pkg", and "Server Setup.pkg"

is it some variant of these or will the .mpkg install these as needed?
