There's the answer. 3rd full paragraph says the original poster may NOT do what he's asking about:
------------ The Software is a collective work of Novell. You may make and use unlimited copies of the Software for Your distribution and use within Your Organization. You may make and distribute unlimited copies of the Software outside Your organization provided that: 1) You receive no consideration; and, 2) you do not bundle or combine the Software with another offering (e.g., software, hardware, or service). -------------
AFAICT, Henk (the OP) didn't specify whether he was going to install an official copy purchased by (or on behalf of) the client, or a copy he bought himself. If it's the former, then it's probably legal, although you'd have to check the full copy of LICENSE.TXT to check whether it's OK to resell a bought copy. Either way, it would be OK if you got the client to buy the software and then installed it for them. If it's the latter, then no, it's not legal. However, the client could make a copy themselves and ask you to install it, since you're no longer doing the copying.
