![]() In MacOS 10.5, Xgrid is difficult to make workable on distributed Mac (server or client) hardware unless one has advanced integration skills - and is willing to troubleshoot error logs until the application works. Xgrid processes workflows (often things such as media encoding) either on the host server or on other Apple MacOS machines. Podcast Producer 2 is an updated server app that benefits from Apple's Xgrid compute clustering application. Nonetheless, it's the first time any of the operating system vendors have paid much attention to fleet mobile/cell provisioning, aside from RIM's primitive BlackBerry message servers. As we don't use iPhones, we were unable to test the Mobile Access Server's iPhone accessibility and the applications sadly don't work with other mobile operating systems, although third parties may be able to offer this for other phones in the future. Similarly, another new app, the iPhone Configuration utility, can provision and synchronize a fleet of iPhones. ![]() Advanced connections can be completed through Apple's L2TP/IPSec-based (or old-fashioned PPTP) VPN connectivity. ![]() A "VPN-less" authenticated/encrypted entry method that's designed to sync iPhones, Mac clients, to their address books, mail, and other internal resources. Users can merge their contacts into the server easily enough - if they're Snow Leopard users.Īpple adds a new service to Snow Leopard, the Mobile Access server.

Address Book is compatible with Zimbra open source e-mail, and is modeled after WebDAV, as an XML-based extension of the venerable vCard. It joins with directory services (Apple’s Open Directory, and Microsoft's Active Directory via open source Samba) rather than be an extension of Open Directory. The Address Book server app, which allows multiple computers to share contacts, is new.
