• iChat Server. Leopard Server makes it simple to set up your own personal Instant
Messaging server so just your workgroup can communicate with one another in
real time. It also can communicate securely with other servers running the Jabber
standard protocol.

your network’s services securely used to be a tedious, involved process. Leopard

Select Your Scenario
Now, let’s put Leopard Server to work! To make the best use of this document,
you should look at the four scenarios below, choose the one that most closely
describes your personal needs, skip to it, and go through the instructions for that
particular one.
Scenario 1: Leopard Server on an Existing Mac Pro in a Small
Oce Using Apple AirPort Extreme as the Network Router (page 4).
Scenario 2: Leopard Server on an Xserve or a Mac Pro in a Small Oce with Routing/
Firewall Services (page 9).
Scenario 3: Leopard Server on an Xserve in a Co-location Facility (page 15.)
Scenario 4: Leopard Server on an Xserve for a Workgroup at a Medium-to-Large
Business with an Existing Server Infrastructure (page 20).
Remember that Leopard Server can grow and adapt as your group grows.
You also may nd, as your needs and skills with Leopard Server grow, that you
want to go into greater depth and learn about more advanced administration
options. So Leopard Server comes with a more in-depth printed Getting Started
guide, and comprehensive documentation of Mac OS X Server is available at
http://www.apple.com/server/documentation.
OK! Let's get started.
