Hi,

After an afternoon of cursing Mr. Cook I finally managed to get server 5.2 installed on a new Mini running 10.12. Software update does not have the update to 5.3 or 5.3.1. Do I have to keep cheating get to get it or is there something obvious I'm missing?

Related Question: Should I bother? I'm running 5.2 on 10.11.6 but it's buggy (smbd keeps crashing) so I needed a second one anyway in case any tinkering I do tanks the first. Of course, being Apple, the 4yo Mini came with brand spankin' new 10.13 (which uses server 5.4 and frankly I'd rather use Windows). But does server 5.3 have any improvements/enhancements over 5.2 or is it not worth my time.

Thanks,

Jeff
