Environment

Novell Client 2 SP4 for Windows (IR2)
Client for Open Enterprise Server 2 SP4 (IR3)

Situation

I'm looking for the new Novell Client, but I can't find it.
What changed in the Novell Client when it was rebranded to Client for Open Enterprise Server?

Resolution

Beginning with "Client for Open Enterprise Server 2 SP4 (IR3), the "Novell Client for Windows" by Novell was re-branded to "Client for Open Enterprise Server" by Microfocus. This was a re-branding only; the functionality of the Client remains unchanged.

Detailed branding-related changes are documented in the Client for Open Enterprise Server Administration Guide and the Client for Open Enterprise Server Readme. These include images highlighting the changes, as well as a table showing the names of the features before and after branding changes.
