Would it work if I install a version of zimbra for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10/11 on openSUSE 10.2 ? to actually do the upgrade from 5.0.18 to 6.0.2 ?

thanks again
FWIW I have done this on a test server successfully, but have not tried it in a production scenario. My guess is the SLES packages will work up until there is some significant change that makes it all go off the rails. The problem is you never know when that day will come. As OpenSuSE is usually ahead of the SLE version game I think as long as you aren't running on the ragged edge with OpenSuSE that the SLE packages should work. OpenSuSE is in a similar position as CentOS in the unsupported category.
