OpenSUSE 11.0 or 11.1

[Philip Nascimento]

Since OpenSUSE has announce EOL support
openSUSE 10.2 (supported until November 30th 2008)
openSUSE 10.3 (supported until October 31st 2009)

is there any plans of supporting openSUSE 11.0 or 11.1 for ZCS Release: 6.0 (GunsNRoses)?

There is no current plan for openSUSE 11. The full list of ZCS Release 6.0 platforms is published at
Zimbra Product Portal

I have check out Zimbra Product Portal. Just kills me that ZCS will leave openSUSE users out again. OpenSUSE was only support 5.X and I was hoping that they would continue.

What is Open SUSE ES 10? is this 10.2 or 10.3 or something totally different?

ZCS will not support openSUSE
Open SUSE ES 10? I think is a typo
On the network version SUSE ES will have support for Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise
OpenSUSE 10? = 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 and so on will not

Guess it was my mistake going with Zimbra in the first place. Guess it's time to take a look at Sun's collaboration suite. Documents have never worked right in Zimbra anyway. Which was the one reason I chose it to begin with.

Never had a problem with ZCS I could not fix.

I have checked out Sun Communications Suite but have not tested. I have seen some support for OpenSUSE 11.0. little capture

openSUSE 11.0 x86 32-bit distro seems to work fine. Used Gnome in initial testing of Update Tool GUI and desktop notifier.
Also successfully used the Update Tool GUI under KDE, but it is known that the desktop notifier does not yet support KDE. See RFE #590.

openSUSE is in the same boat that non-LTS Ubuntu releases are in. After 6 months the you'll be doing dist upgrades - a task I wouldn't want to complete that often on something like a mail server.. Any particular reason you chose openSUSE over something like CentOS?

[Bill Brock]

I run Open SuSE 10.2 and 10.3 on all my Linux servers. Not sure what your statement about 6 month upgrades. Never had that issue.

[Philip Nascimento]

openSUSE is a 2 year turn around. Yes they come out with a new version every 6 - 8 months but there product is supported for two years

OpenSUSE 11.1 Came out June of this year
openSUSE 11.0 (supported until June 30th 2010)

OpenSUSE is much better with installing (rpms) even better with 1-click install
