Part I: Getting Lion Server Up and Running
Figure 1-6:
The General
pane of
Server
Admin
provides
information
about the
server
setup.
3. Double-click the name of a server in the left column to bring up the
login screen.
If you don’t see your server, click the Add (+) button in the lower left
and select Add Server from the pop-up menu.
4. Type the hostname of the server (if not already displayed) in the Address
field and then enter the administrator’s username and password.
For best results, always enter the server’s fully qualified hostname. You
can also enter the server’s name ending in .local, if this is what you
created when you installed Lion Server because DNS wasn’t running on
your network. (More on DNS is in Chapter 3.)
5. Click Connect.
You’re now connected to the server and ready to manage its services.
Click the triangle next to the server’s name to view an expanded list of
enabled services, as shown in Figure 1-6.
If the service you want to configure doesn’t appear in the list, that means that
it isn’t turned on. In Server Admin, a service first needs to be turned on, and
then it also needs to be started. Here’s how to turn a service on:
1. In Server Admin, click your server in the sidebar to select it.
2. Click the Settings icon in the toolbar and then click the Settings tab.
