Advantages of Mac OS X Server over Mac OS X Client? It sounds pointless for me to use it as it only seems to add centralized management interface (don't know how I missed that link). I'm guessing that Server would be nice for a small business needing Web hosting, wiki hosting, calendar server, mail server, etc. My purposes are primarily for: attaching a firewire 800 external RAID5 enclosure, using as a central iTunes/AppleTV server, recording ATSC TV, and running a cctv monitor. I'll probably use Apache for internal things, but nothing that can't be done with the standard OS. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something really cool. |

Advantages of Mac OS X Server over Mac OS X Client? You're doing exactly what I'm going for. Right now, I'm running Ubuntu with a RAID1 array for data. After a disappointingly complex adventure in setting up AFP on Ubuntu and now that I've outgrown my RAID1 array and am looking to expand beyond a pair of disks, I'm looking at alternatives. The only thing I found disappointing about the Mac Mini is the lack of eSata, but when the drives are primarily shared over a network it makes little difference if it's eSata or Firewire 800. |

Prevent SSH from freezing in less than a minute The router is behind a WISP antenna. But this is the side running the SSH client. The server is a web hosting provider. I don't believe I've ever needed to disable NAT from the client side to enable SSH. |

Prevent SSH from freezing in less than a minute It's basically just configured as a standard Linksys VPN router. I'm not doing any special port forwarding. |
