Download Server Admin Tools 10.5.6 v1.1

Apple has released Server Admin Tools 10.5.6v1.1, a package that contains remote administration tools, documentation, and utilities you can install on a computer other than your server.

According to Apple, Server Admin Tools 10.5.6 is required to administer Mac OS X Server version 10.5.6 from a remote Mac client. The Server Admin Tools are available as a manual download, and as an automatic Software Update for Macs running Mac OS X 10.5.6 with version 10.5 or later of the Server Admin Tools already installed. Users should note that Server Admin Tools 10.5.6 v1.1 requires the latest version of Mac OS X currently available – 10.5.6.

A note for users who might have accidentally moved or deleted some of the files contained in the Server Admin Tools folder is also included with the Support document outlining the particularities of the update. If as little as one file has been removed from its original location, OS X 10.5.6 users may see the Server Admin Tools 10.5.6 update appearing in their Software Updater again, Apple warns. Should this be the case with you, Apple advises to return the Server Admin Tools to their original location, or remove any duplicate copies of the Server Admin Tools, before using Software Update.
