B Setup Example
The setup example in this appendix illustrates one way to set up the directory and
network infrastructure of Mac OS X Server in a small business scenario.
Mac OS X Server in a Small Business
In this example, Mac OS X Server provides directory, network, and productivity services
to employees in a small business.
The small business in this example had been using an office LAN to share files and a
printer. Acquiring Mac OS X Server made it possible to implement an intranet that uses
an ISP’s DNS and digital subscriber line (DSL) services. Here is a summary of the
scenario’s characteristics:
