http://build.opensuse.org to check it out. In a nutshell...
"The openSUSE Build Service is the only service that allows developers to package software for all major Linux distributions. The service provides software developers with a convenient and easy to use tool to create and release open source software for openSUSE and other Linux distributions on different hardware architectures and for a broad user audience. " Basically, you don't have to have different hardware and different distros to compile your app for other platforms. You upload your sources tell BuildService what distro to use and what dependencies you have and it pumps out packages for any distro. It's as cool as it sounds.

I don't know about build service, but i'm packaging rpms, i don't have physical boxes to test them out on, the only one i have is a centos 5.3 x86_64, but i can use vmware server to install other distros for testing. Can you give me some details? Thanks.

I would love to see Fedora and/or CentOS available for iFolder. What we should do is try to coordinate efforts through the build service, that way we could have openSUSE, Fedora, Ubuntu and others updated continuously in one place. Anyone up for that? -------------- Brent McConnell Community Manager: Kablink, iFolder Email: bmcconn...@novell.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/emcconne Blog: http://mindby.com >>> Balakrishnan Kalidas 9/11/2009 2:41 AM >>> Thanks Christopher for the update. Once the rpm is successful, it would be great if you can update/upload the same in iFolder wiki or send it to Brent(in CC), who will help update the wiki.
