have the same requirements for update servers.

My quest to add Macs to the US Army Europe (USAREUR) networks
continues...
The local G6 (signal/computer) personnel are saying all computers
on the
USAREUR networks require an update server, to scan the clients and
push out
patches. Since there isn't a Mac server on the USAREUR network we
can't add
Macs to the network. And since there are so few Macs within
USAREUR they
won't support a Mac server. A Catch 22 I've even offered up a
Mac G4 they
can use as a limited server for updates. Plus offered to manage
it. But no
luck. I really think they just don't want to support, perhaps due
to a lack
of knowledge on Mac and UNIX systems. Or perhaps just plain lack
luster
support.
I'm trying to find out how many other Mac users within USAREUR may
be facing
the same road blocks. If I can show there is a community of Mac
users
needing network connection perhaps I can try and convince the
USAREUR G6 we
need support.
Another option is finding a Mac server within the Army that can push
updates, even if it's within CONUS.
If you have any info or ideas please let me know!
