[Casper] Leopard Server ? Ready for prime time ?

[NATHANIEL.LINDLEY at spps.org]

Our JSS is on 10.5.2 now, and we've been doing fine, except for the Tomcat 
issues that Dusty refered to.  Main CapseShare is on a different server, 
so there is little afp traffic on this box.

To clarify, the AFP issue in 10.5.2 is a known Mac OS X Server issue and 
has nothing to do with the JSS.

My JSS is running on 10.5.2, and I have experienced very few issues, and 
JAMF support was able to work through them in minutes.

On test systems, I have experienced the 10.5.2 AFP issue where the AFP 
service will "wig out" for lack of a better term, and you need to restart 
the service before anyone can connect.

We have our JSS, Netboot, and packages all hosted on a 10.5.2 server, I
have obviously not yet run the update on it, I did on my test server and
haven't noticed anything but it's really not being used heavily. We have
been having some issues with tomcat and permissions, but I'm working
with Casper support on that now to see what the cause is, I have to wait
for it to act up again here and grab the info.   Also we have not set up
link aggregation yet on it, but should be doing that tomorrow.   In
short our experience with 10.5 server has not been bad however we never
even had casper on 10.4 since we purchased it right as 10.5 came out and
we kind of just went for it!

There was a significant bug in AFP under 10.5.2.  That was supposedly
fixed in 10.5.3, but I have yet to test it.

This is slightly off topic but I'm curious to know if many of you are 
running Leopard Server in lab environments yet,
and how that is going ? With the release of 10.5.3 I was planning on 
deploying a few of these these summer, but
I have been reading of some users having some problems.  Maybe I need 
to wait for 10.5.4

An example of some comments  :  http://www.afp548.com/article.php? 
story=20080528204603120#comments

I think some of the negatives are about problems with Active 
Directory integration, but we are currently not using
Active Directory for our Macs. We are strictly Open Directory at the 
moment.

Also how about 10.5.x Sever for your Casper Server ? Is this going 
well ? Much of a bonus over Tiger ?
I'm considering switching that one as well.

Just considering what ways to go with our summer server deployments.
