Anybody try installing Bootcamp with Lion yet? I'm curious how you're supposed to mount it in Windows without physical media. I know there are work-arounds to burn it, but I have to think Apple has figured out a smooth way. Can you see the recovery partition in Windows?

Anybody here work with Macs in a corporate, Windows environment? I've always used Macs at home and PCs at work, but they just bought me a Mac Pro to play with at the office because they're thinking about buying a bunch more for some of the marketing staff. They likely won't be buying an OS X server, so what are my options for integrating these things into active directory, and locking them down a bit and whatnot? Googling gives me a ton of options, so I was hoping for some direction on what to look at first. We've got about 1500 PCs and probably won't have more than about 30 Macs, all Pros probably. Domain controllers are server 2003.

mayodreams posted:Late on this, but I am a Mac admin at a university explicitly doing what you are talking about. I have around 50 'lab' Macs that I manage in a Server 2003 AD environment. You basically have two options: OS X Server or BeyondTrust (Likewise). Technically, we use both, but I know that AD is better in SL and Lion than it was in Leopard, but I have found that Likewise is more reliable long term than Apple's plugin.

I've got an older Mac Mini that runs headless as a media server. I've been using LogMeIn to manage it from my PC and my iPad, and it works fine but it's pretty slow. I was hoping to use Splashtop since I've heard it's much faster, but after getting it all setup I find out that Splashtop currently doesn't support headless and fails to connect unless you've got a monitor hooked up. Is there anyway to 'trick' the mini into thinking a monitor is actually connected? Or is there a better alternative remote-desktop app that's fast and multiplatform?

Lexicon posted:Any recommendations for a Lion compatible FrontRow/XBMC like app that can be opened and controlled with the Apple remote, and comes with a decent set of codecs? I haven't tried XBMC lately, but last time I did, it seemed hideously convoluted, and it was inordinately annoying to add an external drive as a media source. I want something as basic as possible.
