I just tried to order it from the Novell/suse site.... (U.S.) I have never seen a more convoluted web site and I never did find a place to order it. I even went to their 'total product price list' where the latest SuSE offered is 9.1..... I gave up.

I need to deploy a 1U server which has SuSepro9.2 on it. I have figured out how to setup my multiple domains for webhosting, but now I need to be able to FTP into the server once its on the rack. How do I setup FTP for users?

and clicking on the links to "pre-order" eventually gets you to a page where you can buy 9.1 or 9.2 but NOT pre-order 9.3 (in the UK). Or did I miss something?

That's weird. I just successfully pre-ordered for a copy in the U.S. Maybe they just don't take whatever brand of card you're using? Not that I know what you tried, but it's a thought. I used my visa check card. Jack

More than tricky..... I can't even see the items you refer to..... when I go to www.novell.com, the upper tab list is in German, and no where on the page do I see 'Operating systems'. I've been down several paths.... None lead to ordering and once past the first couple of pages, none mention 9.3. This site is ba-a-a-aaaaddd

The pre-order link is no longer where you found it, but once one actually does get to it (http://www.novell.com/products/linuxprofessional/preview/preorder.html), and chooses the North America link, one will find that Digital River cannot accept an order. They can't even deliver version 9.2. 9.1 is the only version that appears. I telephoned both Novell and Digital River earlier today, and they couldn't find it either. I suspect they haven't yet discovered and tortured (pour encourager les autres) the employee who arranged an identical failing for prior versions.

Yeah, the various countries appear to be out of sync. On the German site you can see 9.3, on the Swedish site you can see 9.2, and apparently on the US site you only see 9.1. Odd

Yes it's pathetic. Too bad SuSE didn't buy Novell, instead of the other way around. You would think with all that money they got from Microsoft, they could at least fund development of a good web site, which does not horizontal scroll. I hate that.
