Hi, I was thinking if I were to upgrade every opensolaris installed from the interent, then i would need to accept the OTN license on each of those installs in order to upgrade to solaris 11 ex. so, i decided to just to accept the OTN license and dowload another ISO image, since, i read on this thread Oracle lets multiple downloads. And I was not trying to paint Oracle as a bad guy, just as I'm not that familiar with commercial license, i was not aware it is a normal clause,anyway Oracle is doing that on their own, they they don't need any help, when they canceled opensolaris and with the google lawsuit,etc;-) Regards Edward -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
