Why People Love Novell

We recently asked Cool Solutions readers to tell us what they love about Novell, and how they've managed to keep Novell in their organization over the years, despite fierce competition and changes in fashion.

The results revealed a unique loyalty to the classic Novell product lines, and a highly pragmatic line of reasoning: if it works, why replace it?

Here is a nice sampling of responses, from people who have come to rely on Novell's technologies to make life easier for end users and IT alike.

After migrating DHCP from NetWare to Open Enterprise Server (OES) Linux, Dynamic DNS (DDNS) fails to update forward (A) and reverse (PTR) records. This is due to some of the default differences between Novell DNS/DHCP on NetWare and the open source implementation of DNS/DHCP on OES Linux.

DSfW: Post Configuration of DNS on an Additional Domain Controller in OES2SP3

During DSfW configuration, you are provided with an option to select the installation of DNS. For the first domain controller (DC) of the forest root domain, this is done by default. For all the additional domain controllers (ADC), the DNS configuration in OES2SP3 is optional. However, after DSfW configuration on the ADC, if you need to configure DNS on the ADC, it cannot be done using YaST. The script provided here enables you to configure DNS on the ADC in a post-configuration manner.
