How to download Lion server

Hi there,
i recently got a Mac mini server with Lion server preinstalled. Is there a way to redownload server (without using the restore function) since neither Lion client, nor Lion server do appear in the Mac App Store as "purchased"?

Thanks, but how does the disk assistant help me to download Lion server? As far as i understand the disk assistant helps me to recover my hdd, but i will have to redownload Lion+Server over again. That is what i do not want to do everytime i reinstall Lion Server.
What i want is having Lion and Server on an external drive, so in case of reinstalling i do not have to download it, but can install from the external drive.

How to uninstall Lion Server?

I accidentally downloaded Lion Server on my laptop. I need to uninstall this. Anyone know how to uninstall?

Well, actually it's been posted some days ago. But it's not quite enough to get rid of it.
Yesterday I gave it a try and, once everything in the note is done, you still have to open Terminal and :
stop the Apache server (sudo apachectl stop to stop it until next reboot or sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist to stop it definitely)
more important : stop the PostGRESQL database server and the collection of information you don't need anymore :
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.ServerPerfLog.plist
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.postgresql.postgres.plist
To revert this commands, simply run them with 'unload -w' changed in 'load -w'.
(I couldn't manage to find a graphical tool to do it, hence the Terminal commands)
If you upgraded from Snow Leopard and would like to get back the original Web Server configuration (with the ~username local web sites) you have to put back the Apache configuration file stored during the Server installation. In /private/etc/apache2, you should find a httpd.conf.bak file, to rename in httpd.conf (beforehand, you should keep a copy of the current file, if ever you change your mind). Then restart Apache (sudo apachectl graceful).

Snow Leopard client or Snow Leopard Server ?

Can I download Lion Server on my MacBook

Hi
Please forgive me for asking stupid questions but I have just switched from the Windows world to MAC
Can I buy and download Lion Server to my MacBook, and then install it on my Mac Mini Server with Snow Leopard later.
The real problem is that the server is located in Spain - with a 'slow' internet connection and I'm now at work in Hannover (Germany) and I would like to save the 5-6 hours of download in the weekend and simply download now and install later.
Is that possible/legal ?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards
Steen

You can install Server on any Mac that meets the following requirements:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
10GB of available space

How to buy Lion Server?

Alright folks, I've got a Macbook 4.1 that can not receive the new Mountain Lion update. I am going to upgrade it in a few months for a new Pro for me and another one for my wife, but it leaves me with a pretty decent machine to use as a server around the house and to learn with. Is it possible to still buy the server app for Lion? And if so, how?

For the Mini you must have Lion client installed to purchase the Server. You can download Lion from the Mini while it's running Snow Leopard. Once Lion is installed you should then be able to purchase the Server.
Unlike past OS X Server releases the bulk of the software is within the Lion client. The Server is more or less a type of add-on to provide all the Server utilities and support. It's a relatively small download compared to the client.

How to configure Lion Server as network time server?

I have Lion Server at the top of a small network of Windows 2K, Windows XP and Windows 7 machines.
I need each of those computers to synch their time to that of the Mac Server because this network operates without internet access.
I have tried various protocols from those machines to synch on the server's IP but they all fail.
It has led me to belive I need to enable a service to allow time synch to the managed computers.
But I can't find information on this. I keep getting directed to how to synch the mac to a time server or time machine configuration tips.
Thanks in advance

In Server Admin, select your server, click on Settings, then go to the General tab. You will see an option to enable the Network Time Server.

Where can I download OSX Lion Server?

Now that Mountain Lion is out, you can't buy older versions of OSX directly from the Apple Store. However, you can try calling Apple (1-800-MY-APPLE) and tell them that your hardware doesn't support Mountain Lion. I'm sure they still have copies of Lion. It's not like they destroy all traces of previous versions of OSX every time a new version is released.

How to use Lion Server Profile Manager to require password after screensaver

Our Company is upgrading to Lion server. One of our requirments for network security is to require a password to wake the computer from sleep or screensaver. In SL Server you would add a key to the com.apple.screensaver entery in workgroup manager.
In Profile Manager in Lion server there is a custom setting section and I have tried adding a key there but it does not seem to work. Can anyone offer some help on how to put the require password to wake from sleep or screensaver in Profile Manager so the setting gets pushed out?

Hi CodyCodes,
Just discovered the same issue today as well. Further complicating things, the screensaver timeout setting in Login Window doesn't apply to Profile Manager clients no matter what the setting. This was reproduced and confirmed by the Apple Tech I was working with. He's submitted the bug to their engineering staff. I requested that he ask them why there is no setting for password on sleep or screensaver. Hopefully this is resolved soon, as this feature is 99% of the reason we're implementing Profile Manager to begin with.
Cheers

How to import Lion Server VPN Configuration Profile into Profile Manager

Greetings All,
I'm working on configuring a Lion Server VPN (10.7.2) and I hit the following road block. I succesfully started the VPN server and profile manager. In fact, if I download the built-in "everyone" profile that has the pre-configured VPN to device such as an iPad things work just fine. However, I'd like to create other profiles with the same VPN configuration info so I can delegate more specifically to different groups and users. I was hoping I could simply import the VPN configuration profile that I saved in the Server dashboard when I setup the VPN service into profile manager somehow. The reason I'm going this route is because every time I try to just re-make the VPN profile it doesn't want to work. I'm not sure why, but I figure why re-invent the wheel if I don't have too. Any suggestions?

After a lot of investigating I haven't found a way to do this, I'm assuming it cannot be done.

How to download Lion again to make bootable USB drive?

I downloaded Lion and have it installed. Wanted to create a bootable USB drive from the .dmg file but it's gone after install. How can I download again? App Store shows it's installed and won't let me re-download.

This is not difficult and you will not have to download from the app store.
your computer has what is called a recovery partition that came with it.
simply hold cmd+R while you boot up. let go a second after you hear the chime.
you will boot into the recovery partition.
Use disk utlity to format your usb drive and then exit Disk utlity and go to Reinstall Mountain Lion.
it will ask you which disk you want to install ML onto. Choose your new USB drive.
easy peasy

How to download Lion from Developer Center to install in Parallels VM

I have an iMac and a MacBook Air (MBA) both with OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion. I need to create a Parallels virtual machine with Mac OS X 10.7 Lion as the guest OS to be run on the MBA. I have Parallels installed on the MBA; all I need to do now is to create the VM. But first, I need a Lion install.
So, I accessed the Developer Center and generated a Redeem Code for OS X Lion which I have successsfully added to my list of purchases in App Store. However, when I try to download OS X Lion the following message is reported.
Any ideas how I can download Lion to install into my VM?

I guess I shouldn't ask why you would want to run Lion in a Parallels' VM.
I'm a software developer. I have a customer that has expressed a need for me to test the software being developed on Mac OS X Lion as well as OS X Mountain Lion. (I may also need to test on Snow Leopard but that's not definite at the moment.) I have Mountain Lion installed on my development machine (iMac) and test machine (MacBook Air) and I'd like to keep it that way - hence, my desire to install Mountain Lion in a Parallels VM.
As a registered member of the Apple Developer Program and as I understand it, I have access to past versions of Mac OS X - hence, the redeem code. This appeared to be the easiest way to get the OS X version(s) I need. It turns out, appearances can be deceiving.
Nothing shifty going on here, I assure you.

How to download Lion to multiple computers

Please help !
I have installed Lion on my desktop computer. How do I download Lion for my laptop. Yes, I did pay for this, but it was a download from the store. The directions to do this for multiple computers seem non-existant. Additionally, when I log in to my Apple account it does NOT note that I have purchased Lion at all. My laptop does have 10.6.8 loaded.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanking everyone in advance for the haste in response.

When you purchase Lion from the Mac App Store, you can install it on all your authorized Mac computers. Just sign in to the Mac App Store from each Mac and download Lion from the Purchases list.
The icon say's install instead of the price so it recognises that I have purchased it all ready but it does not download.
May be a connection problem, just try again. Go to the purchased tab, when you click Install, you should be asked for your Apple Account, then you should see:

How to download lion os 10.7?

I am running on 10.5.8, can someone tell me how to download 10.7 or the link to the download, because i don't have the app store in my mac, please reply.

You can't. You first need to upgrade to 10.6.x - by purchasing Snow Leopard from the Apple Store (http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard) - and then, if your machine is equipped to run Mountain Lion, you can upgrade to it. You cannot download Snow Leopard nor is Lion available in the App Store.
