Novell Updates Open Enterprise Server

OES is Novell's operating system product that helps to provide a bridge to its legacy NetWare customers. The OES product line first debuted in 2005. With the new OES 11 release, Novell is basing the server on the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 release, that debuted back in May 2010.
The new OES release is the first since Novell was acquired by Attachmate for $2.2 Billion and the Novell and SUSE business unit were separated out into separate entities.
"OES 11 has some improved capabilities in the services that our customers have relied on for so long," Sophia Germanides, Novell produce marketing manager for OES, told
