Yast Online Update and firewall problems
I work in 2 places and have SuSE 7.1 installed on both machines. At one place, a small office, there is no firewall, just a router. The YAST online update works just fine. At the other place, my machine is behind both a firewall and amn email server. The firewall is a Cisco PIX (515) I believe. The email server is called esmith, and is based on qmail and Redhat Linux 7.0. The email server is also used for DNS by the network. I can browse the Internet just fine. Using gftp I can establish an ftp connection and begin downloading files that way. When I use Yast Online Update, I get the error message, No ftp connection. As noted above I can establish an ftp connection using an ftp client of Konqueror. Thanks for any insight on this problem. I want to make sure it isn't a firewall related problem before I try a bunch of things with my SuSE installation. Mike
