[FX.php List] Solution to strange problem with client's new server install

[Bob Patin]

I do.

How are you going to run FMSA on an Xserve without running OS X Server?

I have 10 of them.

I just bought another Xserve a few days ago for FMS 11; it's on a 2.66 quad-core, 8GB RAM, running Leopard Server.

How does it run smoother on OS X than on OS X Server? What differences are there? I've had zero trouble running FMSA in OS X Server; all but one of my database servers is on an Xserve, so all of them run under OS X Server, and I never have trouble.
