You'll recall NNLS was the first product that launched Novell full-bore into Linux. Available in December 2003, NNLS contains Novell's Virtual Office collaboration tool, its iFolder file management system, iPrint, which lets users print from any location, its Internet messaging package NetMail, its Web-based iManager package, Novell Resource Management, a tool for automated software management and Novell's eDirectory. NNLS works on Red Hat or SuSE Linux. In March, Novell announced that its next operating system - Open Enterprise Server (OES) - would incorporate NetWare and Linux kernels, letting users deploy applications on whatever platform they want. In OES, NetWare services will run on both kernels - those services include file services, clustering, print, identity, administrative, Web, patch management, health monitoring and client integration. Users relying on Novell claims that OES will be available by year-end, are busy readying their organizations for the new operating system. As a precursor and to familiarize themselves with Novell services on Linux, many users have tested the waters with NNLS, which contains many of the components of the upcoming OES. OES will run initially on 32-bit extension technology from Intel and 64-bit versions of SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9, which Novell acquired last year. Our story features a number of users who've deployed NNLS and explores their plans.
