Can anyone help me out. I have lost track of the number of revisions that have come out with respect to Mac OS X Server. I bought the Server software when it first came out a couple of years ago( was it that long?). But the software solutions were not there, now they are. Can anyone help me.

Hello. There have been several releases and versions of products with the "Mac OS X Server" name from Apple. I'm not going to be able to give you an exact timeline, but the original Mac OS X Server 1.0 was announced at Macworld Expo San Francisco 1999:

http://www.apple.com/pr/library/1999...osxserver.html

Mac OS X Server 1.0-1 Update and Mac OS X Server 1.0-2 Update were free updates to Mac OS X Server 1.0.

Mac OS X Server 1.2 included bugfixes and additional hardware support; Mac OS X Server 1.2v3 included further support for the Power Mac G4.

Mac OS X Server 1.x had the old "NeXTish"/Rhapsody interface, and was a precursor and, I believe, really a placeholder while Apple made the Mac OS X Server family what it really wanted it to be.

Mac OS X Server 10.0.3 was the first public release of the new Mac OS X Server, based on the current Mac OS X architecture, and featuring Aqua. Mac OS X Server 10.0.4 (2G5) is the latest release of Mac OS X Server as I write this. There will probably be a version of Mac OS X Server that goes alongside the forthcoming Mac OS X 10.1 release as well.

See the Mac OS X Server home page for more information:
