Notes
Follow these steps to install:
This completes the installation process.
- 1. Follow these instructions exactly. If you do not, the process may not be completed.
2. This procedure requires the Mac OS X Server 10.2.3 CD. Installing from an earlier version of the CD is not supported for these computers.
3. The Mac OS X Server 10.2.3 CD cannot be used as a startup disc, so the installer will be used while started up from the computer's hard disk.
Follow these steps to install:
- 1. Complete the Mac OS X Setup Assistant on the target computer, if you have not already done so.
Note: The user name and password you choose here will also be the administrator account name and password created for the server software.
2. Use the Software Update feature to check for any available updates, and install them if applicable. Be sure to check again after each update, since additional software may have become available. For help with this step, see technical document 106704, "Mac OS X: How to Update Your Software".
3. Insert the Mac OS X Server 10.2.3 CD.
4. Find the folder named "MacOSXServerInstall" on the root level of the CD (Figure 1), and open it.

5. Double-click the installer package named "MacOSXServerInstall.mpkg".
6. After the installation process is finished, restart the server.
7. Complete the Mac OS X Server Setup Assistant.
8. When the Open Directory Setup Assistant appears, you must authenticate with the Admin user name and password. Select the option for "Temporary IP Address", and complete the assistant.
9. Restart the server again.
10. Use the Software Update feature to check for and install available updates. Be sure to check again after each update, since additional software may have become available. If for some reason Software Update does not display available updates, download a standalone installer from Apple Featured Downloads (http://www.apple.com/swupdates/).
Note: At this point, the latest version of Mac OS X that you installed in step 2 and the latest version of Mac OS X Server that you installed in this step should be the same.
11. If desired, you may now use Open Directory Assistant. It is located at /Applications/Utilities/.
This completes the installation process.
