		<title>iPad App Wish List for a Server Admin</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
If you hadn&#8217;t heard the fervent rumors over the past few weeks about Apple&#8217;s impending tablet computer, you&#8217;ll no doubt hear about the real deal: the iPad. It&#8217;s a mid-size, thin, fast, multi-touch tablet computer running an enhanced version of the iPhone OS and including Bluetooth, WiFi, and optional 3G connectivity. I&#8217;ll leave you to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cleaning Up MySQL Binary Logs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While Jimmy has previously covered disabling MySQL&#8217;s binary logging for those who don&#8217;t need it and don&#8217;t want to worry about the unexpected disk space usage, others prefer to merely purge older binary logs to reclaim disk space. MySQL&#8217;s binary logs live in /var/mysql and appear as mysql-bin.000001. Some of my servers merely hosting a [...]]]></description>

		<title>How to Kill Orphaned launchd Jobs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever accidentally edited, moved, or deleted a launchd daemon/agent plist file without stopping the job first and then found you couldn&#8217;t unload it? I&#8217;ve done this on a few occasions and learned the following trick from the launchctl man page, just run `sudo launchctl remove &#60;job_label&#62;`. The &#60;job_label&#62; should be the job&#8217;s &#8216;Label&#8217; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Open Directory Replication and SSH Service ACLs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While configuring a Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard Server as an Open Directory Replica of a Leopard Open Directory Master I got &#8220;Open Directory Replica Error value = 1255" when it tried to start creating the replica.

		<title>Swamped by ServicesInformation Errors</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here was a new one for me. A Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard Server file server had been unresponsive to Apple Remote Desktop and wouldn&#8217;t display video for about a week. I could still SSH in and the AFP services it hosted were functioning normally, so I left it for a &#8220;later&#8221; project. Well, this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stripping All ACLs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ll admit it: I rarely ever work with Access Control Lists. Most of my time is spent in web server land where POSIX permissions are more than adequate, so I just fire up Server Admin if I have to add an ACL.
However, a co-worker recently ran into an ACL mess after a client converted their [...]]]></description>

		<title>Flush Your Firewall</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The other day I was having some issues with my VPN and Mail server working correctly. After narrowing down the issue to it being my firewall blocking the issue, I went out on a hunt to locate the possibility to be able to flush out the current rules from the firewall.

		<description><![CDATA[
macminicolo.net has posted their 2009 state of the Mac mini, including their test drive and photos (un-boxing &#38; take-apart) of the new Mac mini w/Snow Leopard Server. Interesting tidbits I was unaware of are:
