I'm not impressed with Satellite 6. It no longer uses SW as and upstream source, however, I am impressed with SuSE Manager. It sill uses SW as an upstream source and SuSE still heavily contributes to the project. <o:p></o:p></span></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The SuSE engineer told me that we can use SuSE Manager to manage both our RHEL and SLES environment.
