[ale] RE: Open Exchange Query

[Mark Wright]

I tried open exchange but could not get it to work.  I ordered an eval 
copy.  It installed with SUSE server.  The instructions said I had to 
configure it with a browser but the server would not respond to the 
default IP/port in the doc.  I messed with it for a week or so then had 
to move on.  SUSE violently opposes any install support on there 
evaluation stuff.  I tried to contact a local SUSE pro vendor to get a 
little support for the install but they directed me back to SUSE's web 
site.

I was installing this as a  demo to a private school over the summer in 
03.  I was sure that I could get it running and then after a few weeks, 
tell them that they were using it and were free form the impending 
upgrade that they were claiming they couldn't afford.  Oh well, it 
turns out they were lying to me about there future plans and how broke 
they were anyway.  Our relationship didn't last much longer.
