The last time I worked with it, it was fairly stable once issues  
with iPrint were sorted. The thing that bothers me is that it still  
feels like an add-on without much direction. It would be nice if  
Novell popped a startup page like Windows does with some basic tasks  
to complete and ways to access those newly running services. Just  
my opinion of course.

Well I’ve successfully installed OES11 SP2 and not seen that error but  
of course there are a million and one variables in how you and I did our  
installs except this forum is not the place to discuss those.

Are you logged in? If not, you won’t see anything OES-related listed  
since it’s not a public, free support product.

If you are logged in you’ll find OES listed under it’s full name of  
“Open Enterprise Server” in the Classification box or Novell Open  
Enterprise Server / OES under Product.

That’s sound like the old “corrupt Novell cookie” issue. Since I can’t  
recall which one is the problem try clearing all Novell-related cookies.

No worries, I’ve worked past it.

And I mean simple things, like logging in from various pages.
