Is there a repository anywhere that has the last updates for older distros?
You'll find them in the DISCONTINUED directory tree. Can't give you a repo url though as I never needed one.

They should be at any of the End Of Life mirrors.

I've only ever used: http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/discontinued/

I am still in 11.0. I went to http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/discontinued/distribution/11.0/repo/non-oss... Yast replied: Unable to create repository from URL 'http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/discontinued/distribution/11.0/repo/non-oss... Invalid path name component '/pub/opensuse/discontinued/distribution/11.0/repo/non-oss/suse/i586/http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/discontinued/distribution/11.0/repo/non-oss...
It adds the full pathname to the repo
If I use the form for yast that separates the components beginning with the / after the domain name it says Error A valid domain name consists of components separated by dots Each component contains letters, digits, and hyphens. A hyphen may not start or end a component and the last component may not begin with a digit.
A valid IP address range consists of four integers in the range 0-255 separated by dots.
If I put 134.76.12.5 as the server I get the reply above with the doubled URL
What am I missing? or what do I need to know/do

Bob, I must be close to you. I'm in Technology Park. (Norcross Ga) Anyway, Evergreen has it documented for 11.1: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Evergreen#How_to_activate The basic thing is: zypper ar URL PRETTYNAME with URLs of: ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/discontinued/distribution/11.1/repo/oss/ ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/discontinued/distribution/11.1/repo/non-oss/ ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/discontinued/source/distribution/11.1/repo/oss/ ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/discontinued/update/11.1/ You should be able to do the same, but change out 11.1 for 11.0 I assume.
