Sharing applications on leopard server

Hi All,

I am running Leopard Server in my office. We have 3 macbook pro client machines that currently use it to share files.

I am wanting to use the servers full potential.

1. I want users to have to log onto the server environment of a morning (Currently they just connect to the wireless network)

2. I want users to be able to access applications that are installed on the server. Such as Project x, address book, steel etc. It would be great if users could access these applications and collaboratively work on projects rather than having the applications installed on each client machine and them working individually.

3. Lastly I have external clients using windows machines who i would like to grant restricted access to the server for file sharing. Is this possible?


A standard configuration was chosen when installing leopard server and all clients have a username set up within directory on the server.

Any suggestions on how to implement either of these three points would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Malloy

Thanks for the tips lesKern and miniConvert,

I am playing around with directory on my client mac now.

What about if I just wanted to share one common address book?
