Mac OSX Server 10.5 not allowing wikis to work.

Hey everyone.
Currently, where I work, we have two servers.
One running OSX Server 10.4 (cause of all the problems associated with 10.5!) and another running 10.5. The one running 10.4 does all our DNS, DHCP, logins etc.
The 10.5 server is only running Web, SMB, XGrid and Open Directory. Its primary use is to host our intranet, cause we want wikis and blogs to work. The 10.5 Server we have is running Open Directory (connected to a directory system, since 10.4 cant replica to 10.5 and visa versa) so we can just have the login data.
The problem we are having is: When we go into Workgroup Manager, select a group, the options to enable the following services for this group on...has nothing in the list.
We have been to Server Admin, gone to Web, gone to sites, turned all the services on...made our site done all that. Its just the option in Workgroup Manager that isn't working. Can anyone shed some light to why this wouldn't be working?

You need to make sure that the group you are enabling the services for is in the LDAP path for the 10.5 server, and not in the local directory or the LDAP for the 10.4 server.

    Well, with a PPC Mac you can upgrade as far as Firefox 3.6.19 if you upgrade from Tiger OSX 10.3.9 to Leopard OSX 10.5, but Firefox doesn't support PPC architecture in the latest Firefox 4, 5, and 6.0 versions.
    For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4.0 & 5.0, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

    But, you still need to carefully investigate if your hardware specs are sufficient for either Firefox 3.6.19 or for 10-4Fox.

  • Mac OSX Server VPN Not Working

    Heres how my setup is: I have an ATT DHCP Server/Router That assigns my public ip.
    I have an Apple AirPort Extreme in Bridge Mode Which hosts the main wifi connection.
    I have my Mac OSX Server connected to the AirPort Extreme
    On my ATT Router DHCP Server's Firewall I have my computer set to DMZ Plus mode which forwards all ports on the network to my mac.
    I am trying to connect to the vpn network via my MacBook Pro and iPhone5 and I cannot. However I can connect to the online wiki page on my server by going to server.djswirkmke.com if you would like to see it. My host name is server.local on the network but on the internet it is server.djswirkmke.com I also have a mail domain setup as mail.djswirkmke.com. My problem is I am not able to connect to the vpn on the client computers can you please help?

    In a moment of random frustration, I tried listing the DNS server in VPN settings three times, and it somehow fixed the problem. Even though it is the same IP all three times, it works when it is listed three times but not when it is listed just once.
    In other words, in VPN > Settings > Client Information > DNS Servers, I have:
    192.168.100.64
    192.168.100.64
    192.168.100.64
    Hope this helps someone having the same problem.

  • Mac OSX server not supported behind Airport Extreme NAT router?!!

    For a customer, I recently installed a new XServe, within a local network with an Airport Extreme (n) with FW 7.4.2. Mac OSX Server manages the router (which has a fixed IP from the ISP). Because the Mac OSX Server runs a DNS server (supporting a local domain), OSX Server reconfigured the Airport Extreme, so that it would forward DNS queries to the server. The server's dns server will forward queries for non-local domains to the ISP's dns servers.
    All clients get their IP configuration using DHCP from the router. You can't use the DHCP service of the server, as you can't disable DHCP on the router (in NAT mode).
    All clients get the router's IP as the dns server.
    HOWEVER:
    The Airport Extreme can't connect to the internal DNS server! *It doesn't seem to be able to route dns requests to the internal network* (verified using nslookup). Any dns queries sent to the router will time out.
    Come on, Airport Extreme team.. you can't claim the Airport Extreme to be the ideal router in combination with an OSX server, if this simple and very common setup is not supported! How hard can it be to either:
    ...*Allow us to disable DHCP on the router* (even when in NAT mode), so we can use the OSX server for this (which will dispatch the correct DNS settings)
    ...*Allow the router to route DNS queries to the local DNS* (OSX) server (which should be working anyway)

    That is true.

  • Not installing Mac OSX Server 10.5.4

    Hello Friends...
    I purchased Mac OSX Server 10.5.4 Leopard DVD.
    I would like to install and configure it.
    According to the manual , its not working.
    It is getting upgrade to my Mac mini 10.5.7.
    After installing , it wants to restart. But, its not booting and getting always restarted.
    So, any advices and suggestions from your side.
    Regards,
    Bhanu

    I'm going to point you to these two places to see if you can resolve your issues:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2019706&tstart=300
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3479
    Basically what happens is if you insert the Server install DVD and start the installer package, if the DVD will boot your Mini it will show the 'Restart' button. If it can't, the installer will run and then you should follow the instructions in the second link.
    Given the fact that many have tried and failed with the second method, I would attach the Mini, in target disk mode, to another Intel-based machine and run the install from there with the Mini as the target. Then boot the other machine from the Mini's disk and let the Setup Assistant finish -don't configure any services on the server in this mode other than setting it up as standard or advanced, apply any updates and then restart. Then shutdown both machines, detach the Mini, then let it boot on its own and continue configuration from there. I've done this several times with both PPC and Intel-based machines with positive results.

  • Bridge CS6 Mac cannot browse Mac OSX server 10.8

    Hello:
    We had a drobo file server which was mounted on the desktop and had no issues browseing the volume in bridge.  After we moved to a new Mac OSX server running 10.8 we can no longer browse the mounted server.  We get a primission violation. Using the finder we're able to browse files and folders and create new files without this same type of issue.
    Is there a preference that allows connection to a network volume via Bridge?
    I hope I was clear on the discritpion of the problem.
    Thanks,
    Rick

    Try a reset of preferences for Bridge using option key while restarting Bridge and choose reset prefs.
    There is also a plist file for Bridge in the user library preferences folder that can be manual deleted and will be refreshed after restarting Bridge.
    And maybe run a check and repair permission with either Apple Disk utility or cocktail.
    Unfortunately Bridge is not designed for use over a network nor official supported by Adobe when it comes networks.

  • Adding Bootp/DHCP Options to Mac OSX Server 10.4

    Our telephone supplier - Splicecom (http://www.splicecom.com/) - has asked us to ensure that option 66 and option 67 are enabled in order for their PCS400 handset to pick up an IP address from our Mac OSX Server DHCP server.
    Please can somebody advise on how to either:-
    a) ensure that they are already enabled
    or
    b) tell me how to enable them
    Many thanks
    Paul

    I think you need some other DHCP server to acheive what you need
    option #66 = Boot Server Host Name
    option #67 = BootFile Name
    (Try "man bootpd" in Terminal.)
    The ISC DHCP server can be installed in OS X using PortAuthority / DarwinPorts:
    "dhcp 3.0.3, Revision 1, net/dhcp (Variants: darwin_8)
    http://www.isc.org/products/DHCP/
    ISC's Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Distribution reference implementation of all aspects of the DHCP protocol, through a suite of DHCP tools: A DHCP server, client, and relay agent. These tools all use a modular API which is designed to be sufficently general that can easily be made to work on POSIX- compliant operating systems and also non-POSIX systems like Windows NT and MacOS. The DHCP server, client and relay agent are provided both as reference implementations of the protocol and as working, fully-features sample implementations. Both the client and the server provide functionality that, while not strictly required by the protocol, is very useful in practice. The DHCP server also makes allowance for non-compliant clients which one might still like to support.

    But you'll need to configure this DHCP using a texteditor.

  • How do I re-install my Mac OSX Server from scratch

    Hi,
    I have purchased two MacMini Servers with 10.6 OSX Server software pre-installed.
    I have changed the organization as our company name changed and run into license issues.
    I want to re-install the Mac OSX Server software and start from scratch. How do I go about this. I tried yesterday for many hours to do so and the new installs are still running into duplicate license issues and other issues. What is the best approach to do re-install? I am willing to erase the internal Hard Disk and boot (with an external DVD optical drive) if that is the best way to go. What are the steps?
    I have the original CDs or DVDs and have extra, external hard disks to do a Time Machine backup, etc.
    Thanks,
    Don

    If you are looking to do a nuke and pave of the system, and you have an external optical drive, then yes, that is likely the most direct method. Connect the optical drive, insert the installation DVD, and reboot the system targeting the optical disk as the boot volume (you can do this by holding down the C key or the Option key during startup).
    Now, if you do not have an optical drive, you can put the installation disk into another Mac running 10.6 and use the Remote Install Mac OS X application in your Utilities folder.
    Hope this helps

  • MacBook Pro (OS X 10.9.1) calendar continues to "connect to server" and will not allow shut down or restart. Force quit worked. How can I make this calendar "behave"?

    MacBook Pro (OS X 10.9.1) calendar continues to "connect to server" and will not allow shut down or restart. Force quit worked. How can I make this calendar usable? The problem began after I updated to Maverick.

    babowa, it seems like it is using Fuse & NTFS, so I don't think it's the classic WD + 10.9 mess, but extra WD tools & drivers can still break things MtTran.
    MrTran, if you must use unsupported disk formats on your Mac you must also consider actually paying the developers that made the trial software.
    It's probably a good idea to follow the developers removal instructions, reboot & then install one tool at a time.
    MacFuse, FuseOSX, NTFS-3G are all likley to confict if you run older versions so you need to be sure you are using the latest version. I can't remeber which one depends on the other, so you will need to read the manuals.
    When the disk is readable copy the data to another disk. You could probably do this from a Linux distro or Windows if OS X won't do it.
    If you insist on only using the trial versions you will need to reinstall Mac OS, copy data off this disk & reformat it.
    Is there any good reason for not using the Mac HFS extended format?

    The network is up and running, but the assistant is not continuing.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for any help or suggestion

    Smells vaguely of a DNS error or IP routing or a network connectivity problem.
    What did you specify for your network settings, and particularly what was entered for the DNS server address? If you're not running DNS on your local network here, then enter no DNS servers as part of the prompting, and let Mac OS X Server establish its own default single-host DNS.
    (You're not going to be able to use your ISP DNS here; those ISP DNS servers are not valid when you are establishing a server on a network behind a NAT gateway.)
    I'd probably wipe the disk and boot from DVD and reload.
