[NTLUG:Discuss] Thumbs up to SLES11SP1 VMWare edition

[David Stanaway]

  I just migrated a critical function off some legacy hardware running 
Debian (Which I still love, but enterprise support is a ?) to a VM 
running SLES11

pretty much everything was able to be configured through yast. The only 
thing I was missing was libnetfilter_conntrack, libnfnetlink and 
conntrack which I had to build from source, and of course the custom 
perl modules I have that use them.

The only gotcha I had was with netbackup client wanting to backup 
proc/kcore in the ntp daemons chroot.

I definitely like this version better than an SLES9 system we got lumped 
with.
