OSX Server downgraded licenses?
by Ashley Aitken

Rate this Message:
Will a license for Mac OS X Server 10.6 (Snow Leopard) work on Mac OS X Server 10.5 (Leopard)? I would like to buy a server license later this year for a PPC machine that will be upgraded to Intel sometime next year and would prefer not to have to buy two licenses. Of course, I am not asking whether the Intel-only Snow Leopard Server will run on a PPC machine, obviously it won't but whether the license will work on the PPC version or not. I guess the question can be asked more generally for any version of Mac OS X Server, i.e. will a license work with a previous version of the server software, but perhaps this architecture transition is a special case.

after a new battery caused a system crash (after resetting pmu/pram/nvram to
calibrate the battery) all gui apps show GMT (menubar clock, finder file dates) even though the cli is using the correct tz. i've trashed all recommended plists, rebooted numerous times, but no luck (all users similarly affected) any suggestions? _______________________________________________ MacOSX-admin mailing list MacOSX-admin@... http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-admin |

unfortunately, /etc/localtime is ok, as are the /usr/...timezone files.
> sudo ls -l /private/etc/localtime lrwxr-x--- 1 root wheel 30 Sep 21 06:40 /private/etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Eastern > date Mon Sep 21 06:43:01 EDT 2009 switching to central time in sys.prefs>date&time>tz switches /etc/localtime: > sudo ls -l /private/etc/localtime lrwxr-x--- 1 root wheel 30 Sep 21 05:43 /private/etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central > date Mon Sep 21 05:43:41 CDT 2009 but the menubar clock stays on gmt; however, if i change the hour, the mb.clock does change as expected. the finder also reports timestamps in gmt, so this is a finder-level problem, not a bsd-level problem... i mentioned that the problem started when my new battery crashed (by which i mean the system crashed as if the battery had been pulled)-: with 20% charge showing...and every time i restart, my clock is set to the unix epoch...obviously i have a defective battery:-( but that shouldn't bollix the timezone when i'm plugged in... _______________________________________________ MacOSX-admin mailing list MacOSX-admin@... http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-admin |
