Installing Mac OS X Server

Use the Installer to install Snow Leopard locally, or use

Server Admin to install remotely.

Before installing Mac OS X Server, be sure to prepare the computer you’re going

to use as a server and get your network and Internet connection ready. Also, use

the Installation & Setup Worksheet to collect information you’ll need. (It’s in the

Documentation folder on the Mac OS X Server Install Disc.) For more information about

these preparations, see the previous chapter.

You can install Mac OS X Server v10.6 Snow Leopard using one of these methods:

Install locally if the target server has a display and keyboard that you can use Â

conveniently

Install remotely if the target server is inconveniently located or doesn’t have a display Â

For information about other installation methods, such as upgrading an existing

server or migrating an existing server to a new computer with Snow Leopard Server,

open Server Admin (in /Applications/Server/) and then use the Help menu, or see the

Mac OS X Server Resources website at www.apple.com/server/macosx/resources/.
