MySQL v4.0.16 and PHP v4.3.7 are also included. The inclusion of SAMBA version 3 allows tight integration with Windows clients and servers. Many common network services are provided such as NTP, SNMP, Web Server, Mail Server, LDAP, AppleTalk, Print Server. The new Workgroup Manager interface improves configuration significantly. User and file management are provided via Open Directory, an LDAP compatible server architecture. Version 10.3 (released August 2003) of OS X Server presented a mature, fully featured server environment. An exception, however, are User services, which are based on (NeXT's) NetInfo.
