I just recently got OES2 running in a XEN virtual and now I am trying to create a Windows XP virtual and have no clue. I could not find documentation or at least guidlines to do this. It will eventualy be a XEN Windows 2008 but figured I would do XP first to get my feet wet. Can anyone lend assitance or point me to some guidlines on how to create a Windows virtual in XEN?

I have a test network that i run through a basic ubuntu router. i have been trying to get an ip novell 4.9 client to log in across this box to my active network servers. I can ping across the router to the login servers, however the client will not see tree/context/server. I can get outside of the network with the client. If i reconfigure the client to my local ip address and settings, it finds the tree no problem. SLP is not configured on this network.

Is this an impossibility? any ideas how to make this a reality?

Hi .
I am very new to Linux and specially SLES 11.1.

Ich have registered myself.
But I can't download this file :
NOVELL: Downloads - curl 20090807

reason :
Quote: Error: we are unable to complete the download at this time. Please try submitting your download request again or try again later.

You do not have the correct privileges to download the file. I think i have to register my machine ..
How can i do this ?

Trying to migrate NW65SP8 (DS8.8.4) to OES2sp2.
miggui is running on the OES2sp2 server which is patched up to date using rug.
Source and target servers are in the came container in the DS.
I can define the source and target servers and get to the point where I want to configure the migration of volumes, but then I get a failure. The log (minus the timestamps for clarity) reads:

ERROR - FILESYSTEM:volmount.rb:Command to mount source: ruby /opt/novell/migration/sbin/volmount.rb -s 138.37.100.118 -a "cn=joshua,ou=sys,o=qmw" -c cp437 -f "/var/opt/novell/migration/cc18/fs/mnt/source" -m -t NW65

I tried executing what appears to be the offending command by hand:
ruby /opt/novell/migration/sbin/volmount.rb -s 138.37.100.118 -a "cn=joshua,ou=sys,o=qmw" -c cp437 -f "K" -m -t NW65 -p password --debug

which produces the output:

SLP shows both servers, they are on the same network as each other, and the firewall is turned off.
Does anyone have any idea what may be causing the mount failure or what error 1008 might be?
