Thank you...I reported the thread for closure a few times, since the OP is not legally entitled to use that software in their country. As such, doesn't that fall under "region circumvention", or warez?

Xenserver is Open Source and can be used in any country. I believe the reference to "blocked my country" is in the context of using the Citrix fora.

Actually no. In the XenServer Open Source EULA it specifically says that the software cannot be exported to countries with which the US has embargoes. The US has an embargo against Iran dating back to 1979.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_...goes#Countries

Whether that covers XenServer, I do not know. But an embargo exists, and the EULA says what it says.

Sorry, but I honestly have no idea what you're saying here...I know what you called me, and still don't have any idea why. And the last part of this sounds like a threat.

Jeremy, this thread is still asking about (essentially) illegal software, and I've not only been called names but there has also been an implied threat.

That's three consecutive off-topic responses. Closing. A few reminders from the LQ Rules:

* Personal attacks on others will not be tolerated.
* Do not post if you do not have anything constructive to say in the post.
* When posting in an existing thread, ensure that what you're posting is on-topic and relevant to the thread.
* Challenge others' points of view and opinions, but do so respectfully and thoughtfully ... without insult and personal attack. Differing opinions is one of the things that make this site great.
