Re: Darwin Box admin from seperate OSX Server Box

The MacOS X Server tools will only administer MacOS X Server boxes, and will only run on MacOS X (both client and server). They will not do anything for boxes running Darwin or MacOS X (client) on any platform. There is no difference (in this regard) between Darwin on PPC and Darwin on Intel.
This is true unless you have your Darwin box setup to be a NetInfo client of a MacOS X Server box that contains user/group data. Then the changes you make on the NetInfo server will be reflected on the client box (no regards to OS or platform in NetInfo). But I don't think that this is the sort of thing you are looking for.

This may be a dumb question, and I'm not even sure I'm asking in the right place, but is it possible to administer a Darwin-based server (for web, mail, or DHCP) running on INTEL hardware from a SEPARATE Macintosh box running OSX Server (using the pretty GUI)?

I understand that it's possible to run Darwin (with Apache and sendmail and other UNIX goodies) on INTEL hardware. What I really want to know is, can a Mac running OSX Server use its pretty, user-friendly, GUI-based server admin tools to run stuff on a separate, DARWIN-ONLY (ie. not OSX) system?
