Chapter 4 Initial Server Setup 109
Put the passphrase file on a volume mounted locally on the target server in /Volumes/
*/Auto Server Setup/<pass-phrase-file>, where * is any device that is mounted under
the directory /Volumes.
17 To provide a passphrase interactively, use Server Assistant on an administrator
computer that can connect with the target server.
In the Welcome or Destination pane, choose File > Supply Passphrase. In the dialog
box, enter the target servers IP address, password, and the passphrase.
Click Send.
18 If you’re using a generic setup record and the server serial number isn’t site licensed,
you must specify the server’s serial number by using Server Admin or the command
line after setup. In Server Admin, select the server, click Settings, and click General. To
use the command line, in the Terminal application use ssh to connect with the server
and type the serversetup -setServerSerialNumber command.
See the Open Directory administration guide for a description of the schema of setup
data saved in a directory. See the command-line administration guide for information
about serversetup.
