102 Chapter 4 Initial Server Setup
2 On an administrator computer, open Server Assistant. It’s in /Applications/Server/. You
don’t need to be an administrator on the administrator computer to use Server
Assistant.
3 In the Welcome pane, select “Save setup information in a file or directory record” to
work in offline mode, which doesn’t require a server connection.
4 In the Language pane, specify the language you want to use to administer the target
server or servers.
5 If you want to create a new setup file, use step 6. If you want to work with a setup file
that already exists, use step 7.
If you intend to create a generic setup file because you want to use the file to set up
more than one server, don’t specify network names (computer name and local
hostname) and make sure that each network interface (port) is set to be configured
“Using DHCP” or “Using BootP.”
6 Click Continue and enter the setup data as you move through the Assistant’s panes,
following the onscreen instructions.
7 In the Language pane, choose File > Open Configuration File or File > Open Directory
Record to load the saved setup data you want to work with. If the saved setup data is
encrypted, type the passphrase when prompted.
Optionally choose View > Jump to Review to review the setup data, then use Go Back
as necessary to change it.
8 In the Network Interfaces pane, click Add to specify network interfaces.
9 After all the setup data has been specified, review the summary displayed by Server
Assistant and optionally click Go Back to change data.
10 Click Save As, then select “Configuration File.”
