Server monitor tools to use on OS 10.8 for monitoring 10.5 server?

Hi,


Are there Apple server monitor tools that I can use on OS 10.8 to monitor my OS 10.5 server?

I used to have tools on my 10.6 machine, but now I upgraded to 10.8 and can't find the tools anywhere.


Please help.


Thanks.

Screenshare from the 10.8 server to the 10.5 server.


Make sure Remote Management / Screen Sharing is enabled on 10.5

From 10.8, choose 'Go to server' in Finde/Go menu and type

vnc://192.168.1.2 (whatever IP address of your server is)


If you are managing from outside the 10.5 server's LAN, be sure to open/map port 5900 in your router.

i got a way to open the Server Monitor App on 10.8.4


take the version from Server Admin Tool 10.7.5


then open the app with ctrl-klick > watch package content > go to the folder MacOS


here is the main application drag & drop this on the terminal or symply doubleklick


now make an alias to your desktop


it really works :-) i don't know why apple this has discontinued


hope this help all xserve users



edit:


i don't check with a 10.5 server, but it works from a 10.8 to a 10.7.5 server
