And what do you think Red Hat Network (RHN) is? Again, RHN != RHEL. ;) > You can think of Landscape as a hosted version of > Spacewalker (which is, from what I gather, inspired by > Landscape). ??? If you mean Fedora Spacewalk, it is the open sourced version of the Red Hat Network (RHN) Satellite product. Otherwise, I'm not familiar with "Spacewalker." > There is no equivalent to RHN and Satellite Server in the > Ubuntu world, proprietary or otherwise.

From: http://www.ubuntu.com/news/landscape "Pricing and Availability Ubuntu users are invited to register for a free trial at www.canonical.com/landscape/register. Trials will be restricted to users who register five or more machines on the system. The free trial lasts for 60 days. Landscape is available as a stand-alone option without commercial support from Canonical priced at $150 per node with discounting available on larger volumes." > It is possible to get the goodness of Landscape even > if commercial support is not immediately required.

As did Red Hat(R) until legal abuse opened its use to everyone. That's when Fedora(TM) became the liberal policy for community redistribution. > you should seriously consider checking your sources. Then my clients are in error. BTW, you should consider reading the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) End User Licensing Agreement (EULA) and not confuse RHEL with the Red Hat Network (RHN) of products. I fully admitted that Red Hat does not offer public repositories for its binary releases of RHEL, which is where Canonical and Red Hat greatly differ. _______________________________________________ lpi-examdev mailing list [email protected] http://list.lpi.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lpi-examdev
