Ubuntu

I’m really impressed of the WAS 8 installation. Install Manager can handle multiple repositories, so you can install the core package and updates in one step. That’s lots faster than installing WAS 7, Update Installer and the fixes. Yes i know Ubuntu is unsupported for WebSphere Application Server, but i like the simple install and update process. So i use it on about 80 % of my linux testsystems and i have no problems when installing IBM Domino, WebSphere, DB2 or Connections. Additional software for Ubuntu I added the following packages to Ubuntu and use x-forward for installing IM and WAS.
