  Configure a Mac OS X Server as an internal LiveUpdate server using HTTP (Web)
1
On the Mac OS X Server, create a directory in the default Web service directory to store the definition files and program update files.
For example, /Library/WebServer/Documents/LiveUpdate. Note that by default, the Web service serves Web pages from /Library/WebServer/Documents.
2
In the LiveUpdate Administration Utility, choose number 1, "Manage Preferences."
3
In preference 2, select "Set preferences individually."
4
In preference 3, specify the folder where downloaded product update files are stored. Enter the full path, or drag and drop the folder where downloaded LiveUpdate packages will be stored. The program refers to this folder as the "download folder." If a download folder was previously specified, press return to select that folder.
