Apple updates Mac OS X server to 10.5.5, and more server goodness


With Mac OS X 10.5.5 on the update list for the day, Apple has also decided to release a number of shiny, happy updates for the Mac OS X Server geeks among us. At the top are two versions of Mac OS X 10.5.5:
If you don't wish to update to 10.5 yet, don't worry about it, you can still apply the Security Update 2008-006 that is included in the OS X 10.5.5 server update. This update, available for PPC & Intel Servers running Mac OS X 10.4, weighs in at 118 MBs.

Once you are done with those wonderful happy not so fun system updates and reboots, why not give the "WebObjects Update 5.4.3 for Mac OS X 10.5 " update a whirl?

And there you have it, all the Enterprise updates from Apple today! We know what all the IT people around the country will be doing tomorrow. Rebooting at least once.


Thanks to everyone who sent this in!

I dunno if it was fixed in 10.5.4 or 10.5.5, but the Software Update server looks like it works now. I haven't been able to get it to start since 10.5 and even then, it would lose track of what it had downloaded once or twice a day.

Can someone explain why they'd want a Mac OS X server as opposed to just a beefed up server running Ubuntu or something like that? I mean, I love Mac OS as a desktop operating system, it's superb. But for servers, I much prefer Debian and Ubuntu, the package management system is incredible. What's the advantage of Mac OS Server over one of the Linux distros?
