Alpha 2 of Deer Park is available – announcement in the Mozilla dev forums.
Install is clean and easy on NLD – settings, preferences, saves passwords and cookies – everything brought over correctly.
Browsing is fast – this is very noticable; especially compared to Firefox 1.0.x.
I posted a while ago on getting ZLM 6.6.1 to work with Oracle. Just some additional clarification in the docs.
Oracle database support is limited to the following configuration:
* An Oracle 9i database running on any platform supported by the Oracle database.
* A TCP listener running on your Oracle 9i database, which can be contacted by your client using onames or tnsnames.
* ZENworks Linux Management installed on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 Advanced Server.
* The Oracle 9i client libraries installed on your ZENworks Linux Management server. The recommended Oracle client is Oracle 9i client, Release 2.We recommend working with your Oracle database administrator for database installation, management, and other Oracle-related issues.
Oracle 10g support on SLES will be part of ZLM 7 SP1.
I rebuilt a NetWare 6.5 server at home this weekend; replacing it with SLES 9.
What should have been an hour or so turned into a fun half-day – the CD-ROM on the server was flaky; SLES 9 CD1 booted; every other CD turned into just unreadable errors.
In the end I installed over ftp from another server – I should have done this much much earlier – I keep a server just for this purpose (AutoYaST, ZENworks Imaging etc).
In the end I was very pleased with another over-the-wire installation; it’s been a few months since I last had to do this; and this time for a ‘real’ server of my own.
I read a nice article on Novel Cool Solutions today. Specifically about creating init scripts on Linux.

Nicely put together; and actually pretty useful.
Here are some examples of ZLM 7 ZLMmirror configurations – fresh from cvs.
There are several key changes to mirroring from ZENworks 6.x Linux Management or Red Carpet Enterprise:
– a single configuration file for all mirror services
– configuration file is now an XML document rather than a conf file
Examples will be given for mirroring from RCE/ZLM 6.x (such as update.novell.com), YaST Online Update, Red Hat Network and finally ZLM 7 upstream services.
Urg – the XML doesn’t post at all well – there are a lot of comments and unfilled data. If you need this urgently ping me.
