Mac OS X Server Essentials
A Guide to Using and Supporting Mac OS X Server 10.4
Apple Training Series (for ACTC Certification)


It's an excellent book -- I bought my copy from Amazon's used section (sorry Schoun) earlier this month. If you are running Tiger Server, this should be on your desk (and I don't mean tucked on a pretty shelf somewhere, but dog-eared, tattered and stickynoted for quick reference).

While I personally would like more info on individual tweaks, particularly of the Mail admin section, it's an excellent guide to the software. Apple's PDF guide (included in the CD) isn't quite as expansive on things that should pass as 'general knowledge' for any server admin -- and is woefully underpar for indepth admin settings necessary to truly tweak a server.

(what tweaks? Well, as Ian Kelly helped me discover last week, the writeups on spam and message filtering from AFP548.com seem fundamental, and nearly indispensible if one runs a mail server - see <http://www.afp548.com/article.php?story=2005081117131089> Naturally, more detail becomes a fatter book, but the inclusion of the CD would keep the printed matter from getting out of control.)
