Reason to start this blog....

Apple's product line changes so rapidly, that technical resources are many times slow to follow, if at all.  Due to this fact, I have been getting most of my technical advice from other users in the field.  I have started this blog in order to communicate and share my experiences with Apple's products, specifically client and server within a K-12 environment.  

During the month of June of this year, I converted 28 servers from OS 10.4 to OS 10.5.  I have been testing for this conversion since November 2007 when I received my copies of Leopard from Apple.  In fact, I presented a hands-on session at MacWorld 2008 in January on OSX Leopard Server for Education.  Of course, all goes well during testing.  In the real world, I have 1 master and 25 replicas, the other servers are stand alone serving different purposes.  I can test one master and one replica in a test environment, but I was not able to test the load with all 25 replicas.  

From here on out I would like to document what my experiences were with the conversion from 10.4 to 10.5.  I will also be technically committing on other issues or items that I address from here on out.
