1.1.3 Software
To install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server via non-Linux–based NFS or FTP, you might
experience problems with NFS or FTP server software. Especially the Windows standard
FTP server can cause errors, so installing via SMB on these machines is generally rec-
ommended.
To connect to the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server installation system, one of the following
methods is required:
SSH with Terminal Emulation (xterm compatible)
SSH is a standard Unix tool that should be present on any Unix or Linux system.
For Windows, there is an SSH client called Putty. It is free to use and is included
on DVD 1 in the directory /dosutils/putty. Get more information about
Putty at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/.
VNC Client
For Linux, a VNC client called vncviewer is included in SUSE Linux Enterprise
Server as part of the XFree86-Xvnc package. For Windows, a VNC client is
included in the present SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. Find it in /dosutils/
tightvnc of DVD 1. Copy the tightvnc-1.2.9-setup.exe file to the
hard disk of your Windows machine and install it. Alternatively, use the VNC Java
client and a Java-enabled Web browser.
X Server
Find a suitable X server implementation on any Linux or Unix workstation. There
are many commercial X Window System environments for Windows and Macintosh.
Some of them can be downloaded as free trial versions. A trial version of the Mocha
X Server from MochaSoft can be obtained at
freeware/x11.htm.
TIP: Additional Information
Consult the README located in the root directory of DVD 1 of your SUSE Linux
Enterprise Server before installing it on IBM System z. This file completes the
documentation presented in this book.
