The Jefferson County government provides services for 530,000 citizens in a thriving community in the Denver-Aurora metro area of Colorado. As in most government offices, Jefferson County is interested in using taxpayer dollars wisely and making the most of its limited IT budget. Managing hardware and software costs was a key reason the county began running Linux and several open source applications. A long-time Novell customer, the county wanted the same kind of user management and network services on Linux as it was accustomed to with NetWare. As both a Linux and NetWare user, Jefferson County found the right fit with SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server to replace Red Hat.
