Server Admin Basics

You use Server Admin to administer services on Mac OS X Server computers. Server
Admin also lets you specify settings that support multiple services, such as creating
and managing SSL certificates and specifying which users and groups can access
services.

Adding and Removing Servers in Server Admin

The servers you can administer using Server Admin appear in the Servers list on the
left side of the application window.

You can add a server to the Servers list and log in to it in two ways:

Click the Add (+) button in the bottom action bar and choose Add Server.

Â

Choose Server > Add Server from the menu bar.

Â

The next time you open Server Admin, any server you’ve added is displayed in the list.
To change the order of servers in the list, drag a server to the new location in the list.

You can remove a server from the Servers list in a similar fashion. First you select the
server to remove, then do one of the following:

Click the Perform Action button in the bottom action bar and choose Disconnect

Â

then Remove Server.
Choose Server > Disconnect, and then choose Server > Remove Server from the

Â

menu bar.
