The GPL stipulates that no restrictions can be placed on the further distribution of a GPL licensed product beyond the GPL itself. Therefore the RHEL license agreement cannot prevent you from running the GPL'd parts of the Enterprise products on other machines (though of course you cannot expect support on those additional machines). Of course the interesting part is all the non-GPL parts that make up Linux (like XFree, Python). Those license agreements may or may not allow further restrictions that could make RHEL license enforceable on the product as a whole. -- Phoebe-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/phoebe-list
