Good evening, someone know the best practice for deploy printer on a mac with Profile Manager? I have add to my Server on System->Printer the printer with AirPrint and it is recognised, with model and position. I use payload "Print", but the printer is deployed on mac only with "generic driver". I have tried to install first the driver and after push the payload, but doesn't work. Always "generic driver". The problem is, generic driver some function are unavailable... Some ideas? Thanks

I tried to turn on AFP access logging on macOS Server 5.6.1, but don't see any entries when accessing the volume from clients running macOS 10.13.5 My AFP settings list as serveradmin settings afp afp:maxGuests = -1 afp:afpTCPPort = 548 afp:clientSleepTime = 24 afp:replyCacheQuantum = 32 afp:maxConnections = -1 afp:sendGreetingOnce = no afp:reconnectTTLInMin = 1440 afp:clientSleepOnOff = yes afp:loginGreeting = "" afp:errorLogPath = "/Library/Logs/AppleFileService/AppleFileServiceError.log" afp:errorLogTime = 0 afp:activityLogTime = 7 afp:errorLogSize = 1000 afp:kerberosPrincipal = "afpserver/LKDC:SHA1.XXX@LKDC:SHA1.XXX" afp:recon1SrvrKeyTTLHrs = 168 afp:idleDisconnectOnOff = no afp:reconnectFlag = "no_admin_kills" afp:activityLog = yes afp:reconnectKeyLocation = "/private/etc/AFP.conf" afp:loginGreetingTime = 1315436086 afp:adminGetsSp = yes afp:fullServerMode = yes afp:idleDisconnectMsg = "" afp:updateHomeDirQuota = yes afp:serverStoppedTime = 1530836567 afp:activityLogPath = "/Library/Logs/AppleFileService/AppleFileServiceAccess.log" afp:authenticationMode = "standard_and_kerberos" afp:admin31GetsSp = no afp:shutdownThreshold = 3 afp:TCPQuantum = 1048576 afp:allowSendMessage = yes afp:idleDisconnectTime = 10 afp:loggingAttributes:logOpenFork = yes afp:loggingAttributes:logDelete = yes afp:loggingAttributes:logCreateDir = yes afp:loggingAttributes:logLogin = yes afp:loggingAttributes:logLogout = yes afp:loggingAttributes:logCreateFile = yes afp:tickleTime = 30 afp:specialAdminPrivs = no afp:noNetworkUsers = no afp:idleDisconnectFlag:adminUsers = yes afp:idleDisconnectFlag:registeredUsers = yes afp:idleDisconnectFlag:usersWithOpenFiles = yes afp:idleDisconnectFlag:guestUsers = yes afp:recon1TokenTTLMins = 10080 afp:guestAccess = yes afp:allowRootLogin = no afp:activityLogSize = 1000 afp:afpServerEncoding = 0 afp:createHomeDir = yes Looking at the specific text logs above in an editor and looking in console app, I can’t find any sort of obvious AFP service logging.

What is the dns server bundled with OS X Server app on OS X El Capitan and where is the configuration file located? For some reason Server App crashes and the only service I tried to configure is DNS.

I have generated a Let's Encrypt certificate for the subdomain I use for the profile manager website. I have exported the certificate and imported it into the Server app. I got the following message when I try to select this certificate. **Additional access is required to use the selected certificate** I press on Continue. And get this message: **Services could not be configured to use this certificate** Does anyone have an idea how to solve it?

I exported Apple Wiki data on an Apple server running 10.10 using the command 'wikiadmin'. It exported successfully. I copied the exported data over to a new Apple 10.13 server and am trying to use wikiadmin import to import the data. I'm getting this error: sh-3.2# wikiadmin import -all -path /private/tmp/wikiexport Converted requested path /private/tmp/wikiexport to absolute path /tmp/wikiexport Found Exported.wikis contained in /tmp/wikiexport Import path is a recognized Wiki export bundle requestedWikiName b25a226e-6c1e-4664-a114-7002b29d3fee is a guid Wikis to import: 1 Importing from /tmp/wikiexport/Exported.wikis/Contents/Resources/b25a226e-6c1e-4664-a114-7002b29d3fee Error: Caught top-level exception: [PGCQueryError] Error executing query [INSERT INTO file_entity (entity_uid_fk, content_type, data_uid_fk) (SELECT entity_uid_fk, content_type, data_uid_fk FROM file_entity_scratch_20180328T141641)]: ERROR: insert or update on table "file_entity" violates foreign key constraint "file_entity_data_uid_fk_fkey" DETAIL: Key (data_uid_fk)=(c50dbd5c-e40a-46e9-9d41-3fe158b2f507) is not present in table "filedata_entity". , exiting Error: Exit with status: 27 I've tried changing the export options as well, using "-format legacy" which I think is the default anyway. I'm at a loss as to what else I can do. I tried just manually replacing /Library/Server/Wiki with the same folder from the old server and the new server did show the wiki but I'm afraid that's going to introduce other problems so I'd like to do this correctly.

I have a Mac mini Server with Mac OS X Server 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard), where I run a WebDAV Server for syncing my OmniFocus (Mac iPad). But I don't use the Web-Server itself (only WebDAV). When I do a sync in OmniFocus from my iPad, I can see the following ERROR message in the apache2 error_log file: [..14] [error] [client IP] no acceptable variant: /usr/share/httpd/error/HTTP_UNAUTHORIZED.html.var ---------- OmniFocus has no problem and **sync just works fine** (debug logfiles show clearly that WebDAV works as intended and the client has the needed User permissions & rights). Only the Web-Server is making trouble. I suppose that an **ERROR message** in my WebServer logfile **means that something is not configured as it should be**?! I understand that it has something to do with '*Multi Language Custom Error Documents*' which is on by Default and is dependant on several Apache Modules. But even after reading several Readme files and studying online Tutorials it is far beyond my understanding of how this works together. My Mac mini Server is still not in productive mode and turned off most the time. I only turn it on to resolve this last remaining ERROR message. ---------- What I tried so far: • extensive Google search / even on SE sites • read all possible (available) Apple Server manuals • started reading the Apache Server manuals • I spent several nights trying to fix the problem (fiddling with .conf files) • I did reset to default settings for the Apache Server • I talked with some hackers about 'Apache Modules' at the 30C3 Congress in Hamburg • Installed a 2nd Mac OS X Server on another Volume to recover default conf files/values ---------- • Could someone please explain me the meaning of 'no acceptable variant' ? • Why does this ERROR matter? What do I need to understand to fix this ERROR?

I am having trouble with my High Sierra OS X Server's file sharing volumes. Sometimes the connection is very slow. Other times I can't connect. Then I sometimes have multiple mounted volumes of the same share, but I can't write to any of them. I don't have any hard drives converted to APFS, so my question was, is there a way to activate AFP from Terminal? sudo serveradmin fullstatus afp shows that there is something still there and I can start the afp demon without any error message with serveradmin start afp. My only question is where do I configure the settings? Thanks for any suggestions. ;-)

I am running a Mac mini in a datacenter 5000 km from my location and I am using Remote Desktop to run and manage it. When I installed Google Drive File Stream it stopped working and I got the advice that I need to allow it run. But nothing happens when I click "Allow". Somebody told me it was because I use Remote Desktop (same with TeamViewer). I wonder if there is a workaround for this or another way to install Google Drive File stream. 10.13.3 Beta on Apple Mac mini and Little Snitch installed. Real problem

I have an old MacBook running Lion Server that I want to be an El Capitan NetBoot server. I downloaded the Install El Capitan Application on a supported computer, and then copied it to the Applications folder of the server. When I launch System Image Utility to create the image for El Capitan, there is nothing under the "Sources" dropdown. TLDR: My Mac running Lion Server, but I need it to host an El Capitan NetBoot Image. How do I go about doing this? Thanks in advance!

Right now, I am planning to have another account on my OpenDirectory on our Mac Server. How can I add another Directory Admin on OpenDirectory? I already added a user but I thinks it's not it. I already read some articles about adding users but I can't find one about Adding Another Directory Admin on OpenDirectory.

I am setting up a Mac mini home server as an HTPC and to run other processes (FileMaker Server, web dev server, etc.). I want to make a user with limited privileges to be logged into while Mac mini is connected to TV. However, I want other processes to be running on admin user account while I'm logged in to user with limited privileges. Is this possible or do I have to be logged in to the admin user to run the processes?

I'm setting up a postgres server and want to create a separate postgres user to run the process, as [recommended in the manual](http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/postgres-user.html) . How do I do this? I installed postgres via Homebrew and have experience with Linux but not much with Macs.

Is there a way to add a printer via the command line that has a custom queue that has two words separated by a space? My command so far is below but does not set the custom queue. Without the queue, jobs won't print. lpadmin -p Printer_Name -D "Printer Name" -L "Office" -E -v lpd://X.X.X.X/ -P /Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/RICOH\ Aficio\ MP\ C3501 The CUPS webinterface page lists the example: lpd://hostname/queue I have tried user a \ , %20 and putting the entire lpd address in quotes but no luck. Hopefully someone can help me out.

As server assembling becoming less of a norm for software engineers, leave Web-based entrepreneurs with 2 choices: 1. Backend as a service: buy a service (e.g., VPS) and deploy a code on some other company's servers. 2. Scale/grow your servers: Just buy servers and scaling them to fulfill the need of your apps. The first choice is not suitable for me, mainly because of security issues. So I go with the second choice. Therefore, I would like to grow my own servers, but would like to use an Apple-based product. However, Apple does not provide server racks anymore, so I left with using Mac Mini servers. I would like to know is it efficient to solely based a business logic on a cluster of Mac Mini servers?

I run Lion Server (10.7.5) on an old iMac (2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) and it handles my e-mail for me. I've been having some trouble recently with delays in delivery of e-mail to my server from DynDNS's mail backup service. I have been advised to add DynDNS's IP range (216.146.32.0/23) to my whitelist. Trawling the net has revealed how to add a single host to the whitelist (add it to /etc/postfix/rbl_whitelist), but that IP range holds 512 hosts. Also, the Mac version of /etc/postfix/rbl_whitelist contains the following text: ### DO NOT MANUALLY EDIT THIS FILE ### # This file is automatically generated # any manual additions to this file will be lost which suggests to me that there is another way of doing it. Can anyone enlighten me please?

When I attempt to change the open directory settings for 10.6 server using ServerAdmin I get the following error. This prevents me from making any changes to any open directory settings for the system. Does anybody have any ideas on how to solve the issue?

I have a Mavericks server with ALL services disabled in Server.app in an attempt to figure out what's causing a huge number of log messages. When I check to see what services are running, I see the output at the end of this question. It implies that the Wiki server (com.apple.collabd), the Xcode server (com.apple.xcs* and com.apple.servermgr.xcode.*), the calendar server (org.calendarserver.*), Profile Manager (com.apple.DeviceManagement.*) and others are all running, or at least parts of them are running. The main concern is _thousands_ of messages per minute that look like this: Jan 18 02:59:25 domain.com collabd: [CSODService.m:78 f0a3000 +0ms] Failed to convert user externalID servermgr_xcode to uuid_t for membership check Jan 18 02:59:25 --- last message repeated 1 time --- Jan 18 02:59:25 domain.com serveradmin: [XcodeRequestHandler+DeviceSupport.m:183 73552310 +0ms] Filtering device because it does not have a serial number (e.g. mac or simulator device) Jan 18 02:59:25 domain.com collabd: [CSODService.m:78 f0a3000 +0ms] Failed to convert user externalID servermgr_xcode to uuid_t for membership check Jan 18 02:59:25 --- last message repeated 1 time --- Jan 18 02:59:25 domain.com serveradmin: [XcodeRequestHandler+DeviceSupport.m:183 73552310 +0ms] Filtering device because it does not have a serial number (e.g. mac or simulator device) These appear to be from the _disabled_ Wiki and Xcode services. They get annoying and also cause excessive log file I/O, not to mention other effects of running services that aren't needed or wanted. My question is threefold: 1. Why are these running if they're disabled in Server.app? 2. Is there a thorough list of server processes and descriptions, preferably provided by Apple? 3. How do I disable them, and which ones are critical to keep running? I'm specifically looking at ones like SCEPHelper for which there is no manpage and doesn't seem to have any description online. Certain ones, like apspd, are used for server push notifications and so should stay running. I'm mainly concerned with which ones must stay running for things like remote administration. I've already tried serveradmin stop X for the Xcode and calendar services, and although I can stop and start them that way, those few stray services still stay running. Also, a bonus question: where is the manpage or help document for serverctl? Disabled and enabled services shown here: $ sudo serverctl list { disabledServices = ( "com.apple.AccountsConfigService", "com.apple.afctl", "com.apple.AssetCache", "com.apple.collabd.expire", "com.apple.collabd.notifications", "com.apple.collabd.preview", "com.apple.collabd.quicklook", "com.apple.collabd.scm_poller", "com.apple.collabd.stats", "com.apple.DeviceManagement.dmrunnerd", "com.apple.DeviceManagement.php-fpm", "com.apple.ftpserver", "com.apple.list_server_mgr", "com.apple.mail_exclusion", "com.apple.mail_status_init", "com.apple.mail_status_periodic", "com.apple.ppp.l2tp", "com.apple.ppp.pptp", "com.apple.push_notify", "com.apple.Rooms", "com.apple.salearn", "com.apple.saupdate", "com.apple.server.filesharing", "com.apple.server.mail.alerts", "com.apple.server.netboot", "com.apple.server.opendirectory", "com.apple.swupdate.host", "com.apple.swupdate.sync", "com.apple.xcs.stats", "com.apple.xcsbuildd", "com.apple.xcscgsessiond", "org.amavis.amavisd", "org.amavis.amavisd_cleanup", "org.calendarserver.calendarserver", "org.clamav.clamd", "org.clamav.freshclam-init", "org.clamav.freshclam", "org.dovecot.dovecotd", "org.dovecot.fts.update", "org.freeradius.radiusd", "org.isc.named", "org.jabber.jabberd", "org.jabber.proxy65", "org.postgresql.postgres" ); enabledServices = ( "com.apple.apspd", "com.apple.collabd", "com.apple.DeviceManagement.devicemgrd", "com.apple.DeviceManagement.postgres", "com.apple.DeviceManagement.SCEPHelper", "com.apple.opendirectorybackup", "com.apple.server.alertsd", "com.apple.server.eventsd", "com.apple.server.v2.stats", "com.apple.ServerEventAgent", "com.apple.servermgr_xcode.get_currently_connected_devices", "com.apple.servermgr_xcode.sync_adc", "com.apple.servermgrd", "com.apple.disks.smart.status", "com.apple.xcscredd", "com.apple.xcscredhandler", "com.apple.xcsdevicesnifferd", "com.apple.xcsxcodeappwatcher", "org.calendarserver.agent", "org.calendarserver.relocate" ); }

I've got a co.uk domain set up in Server Admin on an OS X Lion server for mail. It's all running fine. I'd like to also set up a .com domain to run through the same mail server. Is this possible? If so can someone give me details on how to set it up - without losing the .co.uk domain?
