Thanks for the reply, yes, you are right, I just did a search on the
web and found this article
http://asay.blogspot.com/2005/03/license-proliferation-real-or-imagined.html
seems there are many different licenses inside SLES, I will take a look later.
Anyone has the experience of manually update and patch?
Thanks again
Leo
