[GLLUG] SuSE + Novell?

[Melson, Paul]

The main difference between the free 'personal' SuSE 9.1 and the
'professional' 9.1 is the list of available packages.  (However, if you
download and burn the 9.1-personal ISO, then opt for a network install
and point it to an FTP mirror of 9.1-pro, you have a 9.1-pro install
without waiting for your DVD to arrive.)

The Novell resource kit should also contain NNLS (similar to iFolder?),
GroupWise for Linux, and Ximian.  Mine hasn't arrived yet, so I don't
know, but that's what I was promised.  I'll be seriously disappointed if
they're not included.  It would mean that I've waited almost 2 months
for a DVD of an OS I've already installed. :-\
