The Quick Start Guide for Collaborative Project Management
STARTING MERLIN SERVER
Start the Merlin Server by dragging the slider from “Off“ to “On“. The Server will then automatically publish all projects from the Shared Folder. The active services are indicated with a glowing green light. Merlin Server is now running.
FIX PERMISSIONS
It can be, that there was an issue copying the projects to the Shared Folder. For that reason the permissions have to be fixed. The privileges for the shared project files can be fixed with a click on the option “Fix Permissions…”, which can be found in the Merlin Server pane. The project files can not be used with the server, as long as the permissions are not fixed.
ACL: ACCESS CONTROL LIST
Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and 10.5 Leopard use Access Control Lists by default. These lists control all permissions to the system. Merlin Server needs active ACLs in order to function properly.
