Need help setting up Mac server for dental practice?

My dentist is running windows server 2003 and wants to do a total upgrade to Apple server components. The issue is that the software his office uses for patient records is not Mac compatible. He is really set on the Mac environment and is curious if he can run the software on a Mac running Windows and I guess my question is the same. I don't have the specifics on the software he needs to run but from what he says it is fairly low overhead and handles some large jpeg files but mostly small data files.
I am curios how difficult the task of migrating all the info into the Mac environment will be? He is also curious about remote access from home or wherever he needs to get to his info and am curious if a VPN or other method is best.
Thanks

Ok, I am a sucker. I will bite.
The answer is yes. OS X and OS X Server can run Windows in a virtual machine using Parallels of VMWare (or virtual box, or Crossover, or... you get my point). This will allow you to run Mac hardware with Mac software but at the same time run Windows and the required applications.
But, there is a cost penalty here. First, there is the cost of the hardware. Not a big deal, Apple is competitive in price and the server hardware is very nice. Then there is the cost of Windows and the VM software. This is your tax. You have to add these costs on top of what you are already buying and then there is the hidden cost of the additional support. You are now supporting two operating systems, OS X and Windows. And just because Window is running on a Mac does not make it immune to viruses/spyware/trojans/etc.
If this guy really wants to go the Mac route, then go all Mac. Check out http://www.macpractice.com/mp/dds/ or http://www.macdentpro.com/index.php or do a search. There are a number of products that can handle dental practices on Macs, including the radiology aspect. Google is your friend.
As for remote access, OS X Server has a VPN built in that works well. That is not a problem. Or you can get a dedicated VPN appliance to handle security. Once bit of advice. Make sure you implement a good backup solution. Don't be foolish and think that TIme Machine alone is going to save you. This is medical records. Do not mess with them. Spend the dollars to properly harden the environment and ensure record retention policies are met.
Hope this helps

N00b needs help setting up MAC OSX Lion Server for email.

I recently purchased a Mac Mini running OSX Lion Server and I really don't understand how to set it up as an email server (which was my main goal). Eventually I'd like to set it up to host just about everything else, but I can't seem to figure out how to set up my router and MX records to point to my server in order to host imap mail. I do have a static IP by the way but this N00b is confused... Please help!

Need help setting up approval workflow step for PO and Shopping Cart

Hello,
We are on SRM 7.0 and setup BRF and process level config for automatic approvals of SCs and POs using task 40007988. We would now like to test approval based workflow (create work item to route to approver) using a process level step.
1) Is there a standard task that can be used to enter in the process level step? Or should we create a new standard task? If a new task is required, what import/export parameters should be defined?
2) How do we setup agent for this step? Are the entries u201CResp Resolveru201D and u201CResp Resolver Parameteru201D in process level config required? The BADI BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER already has some SAP delivered implementations? Should I create a new implementation here?
Thanks,
Zack

Hi,
Welcome to new Process-Controlled Workflow implementation in SRM 70.
You can find the task list in the transaction PFTC. Task Group 40000003.
Please activate the BC Sets in transaction SCPR20. Find the BC Sets /sapsrm/*.

HOW TO?: Need help setting up 3 different iCloud accounts for my kids (so each has own iMessanger)using same Apple ID (mine) ....they don't have their own separate email addresses to work from...how do I do this?

Need help setting up 3 different iCloud accounts for my kids (so each has own iMessanger)using same Apple ID (mine) ....they don't have their own separate email addresses to work from...how do I do this?

Any devices connected to the same icloud account can sync all the data on that account. For this reason an icloud account is really for a single user.
On a mac, if each user has their own account, then the itunes for that mac account should be set up to connect to that user's icloud account (System preferences>icloud).

Need help setting up and configuring rsync

Hello
I need help setting up, or rather configuring rsync to sync data between my brand new iMac and my Macbook Air.
Here is what I would like to:
- I want all of the files on both machines to be an exact mirror or copy of each other. Basically I have an iMac for at home, and then a Macbook Air for the road.
- The main folder on both Macs is called 'Sara' and I want the contents (mainly the 'movies' folder, 'music' folder, 'documents' folder and 'pictures' folder) to immediately sync up with each other when both of them are on my home network.
- this means if I'm working on a file at home on my Macbook, it will immediately write to the same directory on my iMac and vice versa (if I'm working on file(s) on my iMac, it will immediately save the contents to my Macbook). This way, if I'm working on last minute project my iMac, and then have to head out the door to the airport, the file is immediately saved to my Macbook (no usb for USB transfer).
- hopefully this makes sense??
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks

It's a lofty but unrealistic goal. Rsync does not run automatically. There is no realistic method of instantaneously synching two computers over the internet or even on a LAN.
I would suggest you might try using Synk Pro which, in theory, can keep two devices in sync when they are both on the same network (and both have shared and mounted drives.)
If you must do this with rsync then I suggest a Google search for rsync tutorials.

Encryption wouldn't matter except for Wifi.
While 10.2 might help, there's not much you can do on the Internet these days with less than 10.4.11

To use Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, your Macintosh needs:

Teresa,
I think the best way for someone to volunteer to help you would be for them to send you a Private Message (PM) here on the forums. You should see a small envelope in the upper right corner of the screen, when it changes color you will know you have a PM to view.
I would be happy to help, but since I am in North Texas I don't think that is a viable option Sorry....

I need help setting up an apple id for my sons phone. It seems his email address has been taken and/or we cant get the password.

I need help setting up an apple id for my son's phone. It seems his email address has been taken and/or we cant get the password.

Two different things
If you forgot the password
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
If the email ID you want to use is in use by someone else - then you may need a new one
The iCloud ID's are usually unique and may be of help if you set one up

Need help Setting up Multiple Static Ip , 1 for each port of the fios router

Need help Setting up multiple Static Ip on my fios router
I have been trying to figure out how to set up multiple ip in my fios router.
However I kind of managed how to set up multiple static ip However the way I want it is for each port of my router to have an external ip signed to it. ( like 4 different modem in 1 )
Verizon gave me 5 static ip but they can not help me how to set it up.
Have anyone here done more then one static ip on different ports? I assume that the process will be the after the second static ip.

You want to set up Static Nat. You will not assign the IP to a port, but rather to a local machine. Figure out what machines you want your IP's to go to. Under the firewall section you will see static nat. Pick the machine you want and enter one of the IP's you were assigned.
