We bought a copy of OS X Server to set up a network file system, mail server, and print server. Unfortunately this book has proven completely useless in helping on those tasks. The only purpose of this book is to prepare you to pass an examination certifying that you understand OS X Server administration. Frankly, anyone who only has that certification will not really be prepared for the challenges of system administration.
I was hoping for a volume that would help me to identify ... Read More

Apple Training Series: Mac OS X Server Essentials (2nd Edition) (Apple Training)
This book was a complete waste of money. I was looking for assistance with 2 things, neither of which were covered in any detail.
The first and biggest failing was with Mail Services; the entire discussion encompassed a small paragraph which basically states that mail services are available. No discussion of how to configure mail accounts, no discussion on how to get started with mail services. ... Read More

The second edition book reads well and is presented very nicely. What it presents it seems to do well.
However, it stops short of presenting some major key information. The biggest two I've noticed so far are a total lack of information on setting up web hosting SSL (security) and nothing on setting up Ruby On Rails on Leopard server. What a shame. I believe the author would do a great job on the basics of such topics.
With the oversights of SSL security and Ruby On Rails ... Read More

Regan and Pugh provide a pointed and clear overview of Leopard server fundamentals in their officially Apple-sanctioned guide book. The fact that it is targeted for admins, and geared for certification study kills two birds with one stone. I found the book very useful in bringing up a 10.5 server from install through providing distributed solutions via Netboot through tackling Apple's Open Directory. Overall, a very well-rounded reference I know I'll use over and over.

Peachpit's "Apple Training Series" is generally an outstanding product line. However, there are two distinct branches to the line: knowledge and certification. This book isn't designed as much to teach you about OS X Server (Tiger edition) as it is to prepare you for a certification exam. Nothing wrong with that, it just not terribly practical for real world operations. While I haven't taken the certifcation exam, I suspect this book prepares you well for the exam since it's the "offical" curriculum of ... Read More
