Mac OS X 10.5.1 running on my campus server

[joecool85]

I logged into my university FTP account today using gFTP on my slackware box, and I noticed it said "FTP server (Version: Mac OS X Sever 10.5.1 - + GSSAPI) ready."

10.5.1?? I wonder how they got it.

 

[liketom]

well 10.5 first then 10.5.1

so i think you must have just read it wrong

I call shens, and why would a school give students ftp access is beyond me.

Anyway, with 10 days to go until this OS is previewed we're bound to hear a lot of crap as "news scoops."

thank you, try again

Or the server administrator is having fun with you. You can set that message to say anything you want.

I call shens,

Well, best go get my broom.

I have 1gb of storage on the New Media server at UMaine (Cordova) for sharing files with the other students/hosting websites/projects etc.

Thats one of mine.

Probably just a typo... since I'd be willing to bet that there aren't any versions of that OS installed on campuses anywhere.

I'm sure it's installed somewhere on the Apple campus.

Touché

You think they have 10.5.1 when 10.5.0 isn't even in beta yet? Right...

Wow... that's great, but not as good as my MacBook:

10.6.2 was really unstable for me, although 10.6.3 addressed many of those problems. But when I sit down and use 11.0.5, I just can't imagine going back to the OS X days...

I didn't know if maybe University's got to test-drive stuff first. It's probably either a typo or more than likely someone put that in just to see if anyone would catch it.

 

[iCeQuBe]

Touché

The grey part of the pie chart represents hangin with OS X 10.4 while the white part over here represents just kickin it with 10.5.1.......

Lots of schools give students FTP access, including mine. I don't know how much memory I get, but I do get enough to host papers and other stuff on it.
