Let me be the first to announce the availability of the Public Beta.

Head here to download (Novell Login required)

Note the readme and the hardware requirements for installation.

I strongly recommend installing this on a server class machine. If you want to see ZENworks Configuration Management, Reporting and the integrated ZENworks Patch Management - you will really need a dual core machine with 4 GB of RAM.

Note that in the Public Beta the reporting functions require a Windows 2003 Server.

Download, install and report back your findings.

I'll be blogging on the features in the coming days and weeks.

It's size at 4GB means that anyone behind a BorderManager proxy can not download the file. Has anyone at Novell considered
using WinZip against the file?

I heard there wasn't going to be an app launcher. Is that true? We rely on the app launcher on every single desktop and it would be a big reason not to move to Zen 10.

Maybe the confusion is because there is no separate application explorer. It's integrated into the agent a little more completely than before. The functionality is still there though.

Windows Server 2003 is required?

Nice. Now there's no way we can deploy it.

Thanks.
