For a Linux workstation, the iFolder client requires the Mono framework. Mono is a development
platform for running and developing modern applications. Based on the ECMA/ISO Standards,
Mono can run existing programs that target the .NET or Java frameworks. The Mono Project is an
open source effort led by Novell and is the foundation for many new applications. For information
about Mono, see the
Mono Project Web site (http://www.mono-project.com)
.
If you ever need to upgrade Mono for other software, please check the latest
Readme
on the
Novell
iFolder 3.6 Documentation Web site (http://www.novell.com/documentation/ifolder3)
to see if
Novell explicitly supports that Mono version and to learn any necessary steps to make the upgrade
work correctly.
