   OS X Server 2.2.1

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Apple has released [1]OS X Server 2.2.1, with the server add-on for OS
   X 10.8 Mountain Lion adding a couple of features in addition to some
   stability fixes. First up, a Caching Server has been added to improve
   download speeds from the Mac App Store, enabling you to download one
   copy of the software to your Mac running OS X Server and then
   distribute that copy to other connected Macs. The release also adds a
   Time Machine monitoring service that can check to see which computers
   have backed up (including information on size and time of last backup),
   Wiki Server support for Retina displays, Centralized Certificate
   management interface. This update fixes an issue with deleting apps
   uploaded to the Profile Manager, setup failures caused by an SSL error,
   and problems with upgrading from Lion Server. Additionally, OS X Server
   2.2.1 includes a few [2]security patches focused on closing some holes
   related to Ruby on Rails. ($19.99 new, free update, 153 MB, [3]release
   notes)
