Re: openSUSE as small bussiness server

1.Is openSUSE appropriate as a server for a small company with 1 to 25
users?

Yes. (Depending on the IT crew which can mess it up nevertheless)

2.Any example of openSUSE being use as production server?

web hosting, mail server, groupware, databases, DHCP, DNS, proxy, firewall,
content filtering, routing, PDC, file server, application development, ftp,
media, blogs, chat, usenet, terminal services, distributed compiling,
number crunching... The IT crew is the limit.

3.If choose to buy instead of download openSUSE I will receive 1-year
of maintenance. Anybody could tell me what is included in that
“maintenance) (http://www.novell.com/products/opensuse/howtobuy.html)

Recommend you read the terms and conditions for the enterprise products.

4.Is SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop a better server than openSUSE? I
know that it is suppose to be use on desktops but everybody knows that
there is no real “desktop version”on linux. Or I am wrong?

SLED is a desktop. SLES is a server. The difference is the product lifetime
and orientation towards specific tasks.
