This forum may not be the best place to ask this, but it does pertain to an A4D install...

4D Client 6.8.4
Active4D 3.0
ITK Web Server
Currently running on 1 GHz G4 tower running 10.2.8

They are planning to move to 4D 2003 (already own full licenses) and will update Active4D + shell to latest betas.

This customer is looking to replace the G4 server with an XServe that will probably come with OS X Server installed. Knowing how they currently use the existing server: WebSTAR (web only), 4D/Active4D, and a 3rd-party FTP server; I'm wondering if having OS X Server isn't overkill? Under this setup they might move to Apache and the built-in FTP server, but most of the other OS X server features would go unused.

Can anyone here who runs OS X Server cite any clear advantages of using it over regular OS X, or more importantly, are there any problems with running 4D/Active4D under OS X Server? I suspect that their current setup might have problems running under Tiger Server, so I've already had them inquire about having it configured with Panther server installed if possible. If that isn't possible hopefully 4D will have a Tiger-compatible 2003 version by the time they upgrade.

Thanks,

Brad Perkins
