SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9
Having already updated its <a href="http://reviews.zdnet.co.uk/software/os/0,39024180,39155022,00.htm">consumer focused Linux</a> last year, you could be forgiven for expecting Novell’s latest enterprise operating system to be little more than a rehash of that software. However, that’s not the case: there are significant performance, scalability and security enhancements in version 9 of SuSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES 9), together with a raft of new and improved management features that help push it to the top of the Linux pile.
