In fact, we also - we have heard nothing on the latest operating system from Apple, called "Leopard" from the time the developer conference of the World Wide in August 2006. We will focus on some of the new features here - this server more to meet business needs that the system's normal operating office.
Office functions
Time Machine:
Apple has already copy security, but he did even better with Time Machine. Initially, it performs a full backup of your system (on an external drive or network share) then regularly backup files that have changed. You can retrieve previous versions of files or files that you recently deleted the zoom window of time as the name suggests.
Spotlight:

Teams Directory:
Apple wanted to sentence embedded in Wiki Server, taking their previous attempt at a blog-server (based on Blojsom) a little further.
Spotlight Server:
Apple incredibly fast content and metadata capabilities of search engine mounted volumes, which allows lightning-fast searches through gigabytes of your business terabytes (or?) shared storage. Think of the plug-in opportunities to create a shared server asset.

Is there a Linux version of Mac OS X Server with a graphical user interface that manages all functions of the server?
I try to find a server that has a graphical user interface, such as Mac OS X Server that allows you to manage server roles (Apache, MySQL, Samba, FTP and others) with a real command line not GUI. Windows server 2008 is a rip off, especially for a small intranet server like that. The following system specifications: • 1 GHz Pentium 3 • 30 GB hard drive • 128 MB of RAM "Webmin" is not properly installed on the server I want to try installing Ubuntu now. Thank you!
Webmin is running on PCLinuxOS BE (installed). BE is the commercial edition - it comes with all servers (and higher) by default. http://www.pclosbe.org/
