“Novell is using open source technology from rival Linux server
vendor Red Hat to help Red Hat users migrate to SUSE Linux.

“Novell is using open source technology from the Spacewalk
project that rival Linux vendor Red Hat started, in order to help
Red Hat users migrate to SUSE Linux.

“The new SUSE Manager is a Linux systems management solution
that will enable administrators to manage and update SUSE Linux
Enterprise Server (SLES) as well as Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
installations. SUSE Manager replaces the Zenworks Linux Management
solution that Novell has had in the market since 2004, which
evolved from the Ximian Red Carpet Linux management product
suite.”
