Ok… I think the problem was that our main network switch was going bad! Perhaps $400-$500 is not enough to spend on a 48 port gigabit switch (Netgear). The fan warning light had been on for a while, neglected, so I think it overheated and that was the problem here. Strangely other networking was not affected as noticeably as the mac mini server.
Copying over the tools works fine.
Bug in the installer I guess (that it won’t install Admin Tools 10.4.11 on Leopard).

I was just about to ask about this. I have a 10.4.11 server and have been administering it with my 10.4.9 Macbook Pro. I recently updated the MBP to Leopard, now 10.5.1 and I’m trying to administer the server from there (here, actually). I downloaded the 10.5 server admin tools and when I tried to connect to the server it said this version of the admin tools didn’t work with my server version.
Then I downloaded the 10.4.11 server admin tools and tried to install that, but it refuses to install on 10.5.1 for an “unknown reason.”
Any ideas?
I’m about to copy the admin tools from my old 10.4.9 drive to see if they work, but how the hell is it supposed to work? Apple’s documentation is spotty at best.
Thanks.
