My understanding was that macminicolo stopped accepting new customers in Switch after they got bought out?

If the Server App could run on Linux, or if OS-X could boot on standard servers, perhaps, it it seems to be a very bad fit in carrier/enterprise environments.Implementation will be a little tricky, because you need your customers to look a record in your domain.I've tried reading some about it. The cache server app registers with Apple its existence and the IP address ranges it serves When a client wants to download new IOS version, Apple checked and finds that the client's IP is served by the caching server whose "local" IP is a.b.c.d (akaL the inside NAT IP address). Tells client to get version of software from that IP address. The DNS TXT records are used by the Caching Server to get the list of IP blocks it can serve. (not needed in the target small office environments where everyone is on same subnet and the caching server can tell the apple serves the one subnet it seves).
