Foundation Services is filled with practical advice and guidance on topics ranging from backup, to naming convention, to architecture planning. Start here to set a strong foundation.

El Capitan Server is Apple's latest evolution of OS X Server. OS X Server is a collection of core networking services, collaboration tools, and groupware products. It remains a Swiss Army Knife, packed with capable and useful tools for many different deployment targets. There are no hidden costs, no add-on packages, and no exotic hardware requirements. OS X Server is simply an un-carved block, waiting for a creative system administrator to achieve nearly anything imaginable. Beneath its simple facade hides powerful tools for serious work.

This is the third edition of "Foundation Services." Fully reviewed and updated for El Capitan and Server 5, "El Capitan Server - Foundation Services" provides a significant amount of new and updated content.

Chapters include:
* Introduction
* Installation
* DNS
* DHCP
* Directory Services

* Caching Server
* Foundation Extras
* Change Log

In addition to these chapters, Foundation Services also covers Active Directory integration, System Integrity Protection, scripting and automation using cron and launchd, and valuable advice regarding backup, upgrading, workflow, and integration into existing infrastructure.

El Capitan Server - Foundation Services fully embraces the benefits of digital publishing and Apple's iBooks distribution model. The book will evolve as Apple updates Server.app and El Capitan. Buyers of the book can expect a consistent stream of updates throughout the life of El Capitan.

In addition, $1 from each sale will be donated to the American Cancer Society in the hope that future generations will not know the suffering and loss of cancer.

Reader Reviews of the Foundation Services Series:

"The documentation is extremely well written, clear and accurate. He has added to and updated my understanding of many aspects of the Mac server and done it with humor and great tone. I also like that he spoke of current best practices from real world experience. This is commonly missing from other technical books."

"This book is completely different. It is focused on using OS X Server in a larger enterprise environment, but even if all the text doesn't apply to my home server environment, I learn something new on just about every page. Mr. Bundonis has years of experience working with OS X Server in very large environments and it shows."

"In short, this book is a must-have for anyone setting up (OS X) Server using any configuration... In fact, many tips in this book could help those managing servers other than Maverick Server. Overall this probably is the best server book I have ever read. I only wish there was more of it. Apple you need to hire this guy to help write your documentation!!"

"The author continues to keep this book up to date with every maintenance release and also adds new content."

"Firstly, thanks for all the hard work - it was a most enjoyable and informative read."

"Your books have been so great that everything just works. Seriously, I read a few other books and nothing was as dead simple and easy to understand as your writing and the way you walk through stuff."

"This is really the server book I've been looking for since I started running a Mac server years and years ago. I'm anxiously awaiting the release of his other two books"

* iOS 8 or later
