OES2 <> Linux

0

So... OES2 has "replaced" NetWare, and OES2 is based completely on Suse Linux? Then what is NetWare 6.5 SP7?

No, really, you are very nearly correct. This is the last NetWare version with physical support. The next release will be virtual-only.

It's exciting to see all of the traditional NetWare services showing up on SLES in a realistic way, but there are still clients who are very nervous about losing their NetWare before they are ready to let go.

This release could be considered transitional for those more conservative customers just as OES1 was transitional for the more adventurous. But NetWare isn't quite out of the picture -- yet.

Good piece, Marvin, Thanks!
