Boot Camp Assistant comes pre-installed on your Mac. Download your copy of Windows 10, then let Boot Camp Assistant walk you through the installation steps. I know this is not the best solution as Parallels is a desktop (not a server) based virtualizer but it works and the results are better, by far, than using postfix in Mac Os X. Boot Camp is a utility that comes with your Mac and lets you switch between macOS and Windows. If you're using an iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014) or iMac (27-inch, Late 2013) or iMac (27-inch, Late 2012) with a 3TB hard drive and macOS Mojave or later, learn about an alert you might see during installation. Working with about one hundred mail accounts and no problems at all since I started it a copuple of months ago. For more information about using Windows on your Mac, open Boot Camp Assistant and click the Open Boot Camp Help button.
So now this Xserve is running as a Webserver under Mac Os X and as mail server under Parallels plus freebsd 6.2.
If you want to start up using the default operating system now, click Restart. Select the startup disk that has the default operating system you want to use. Click the lock, type an administrator name and password, then click Unlock. So I tried to run a freebsd running the latest versions of everything under Parallels and, after a couple of hours I had a mail server running latest stable versions of Postfix, Dovecot, Spamassasin and Amavis-new. In macOS, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Startup Disk.
and keeping them updated, specially the amavis-new, depends on Apple updates which are always obsolete when issued. Yes, as I do not like the poor abilities of Mac OS X Server Admin app for server configurations, specially as a mail server, I have a virtual freebsd box running under Parallels in a production Xserve.Īpple has "reconfigured" postfix, amavis, etc.
