Hi Marcy!
Just Curious.....Where have you seen an IBM announcement that WAS version 6 or
higher supports SLES 10. We've been waiting for that particular
information.

I don't know about Oracle, but DB2 and Websphere AS support SLES 10.

None of your business? I don't know...but good topic.
1. I don't think it is an issue with a support contract. Ours use to
be directly with SUSE, but now it is under our general Novell contract.
I just looked at GnuPG as just an application that runs under Linux. So
I picked up the new GnuPG from the website. But now that you brought it
up, I should have looked on the Novell website. I should have been able
to use YOU to update it. Firewall restrictions currently prevent me
from YOU access outside of the firewall. So, that wouldn't have been an
option, if I would have thought about it.
2. I didn't look at SLES10. However, GnuPG 2.0.1 just came out in late
December 2006. So I doubt the base SLES10 would have had a V2.
3. Right now, I'm pretty dedicated to SLES 9. When Oracle 10g and
DB2/UDB are certified for SLES10, I will be ready for an upgrade cycle.
Ooops, forgot Websphere also.
No, I didn't look other places, once I found the www.gnupg.com website.
Once I got the right commands, producing the files from source was
somewhat interesting. That is the first time, I've attempted installing
from source somethat that wasn't really trivial.
