Hello,
Could some body clarify this topic. To my knowledge Om Logistics has done one of largest implementation of Free Software in business. He has one copy of RHEL (purchased). He is installing that on 600 machines, which Redhat India says is illegal.
Regards

Hi all,
I have 600 computers running on Red Hat Linux, after discussions from
Red Hat persons, I come to know that my linux deployment is illegal,
because I have not purchased enough licenses from Red Hat.
But as per GPL, I can copy / Redistribute the software after
modification / without modifications.
So I just want to know that Red Hat Linux is available under GPL or not.
Till date I understand that I have to pay for the support. In case I
need support, I have to pay otherwise I don't require to pay any thing.
Please advise,
