I checked the dependencies, and discovered that I don't have perl_net installed - nor can I find that package on the distribution CDs or on any SuSE site.
You must be running SuSE Linux 6.3 or older, than. You can find a package for SuSE Linux 6.4 here: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/6.4/suse/d1/perl_net.rpm It should work on older SuSE Linux Versions, too. Otherwise you could install the Perl modules libnet and Net-SNMP manually from CPAN.
Besides, I have to admit that enabling this feature on a production server seems somewhat scaring to me (especially since site-hijacking and other DNS troubles are not so uncommon in these days...). I'd probably try it for a while on a user's workstation.
Yes, I totally agree. Automated updating should be taken with a grain of Salt :) Bye, LenZ -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Lenz Grimmer SuSE GmbH mailto:grimmer@suse.de Schanzaeckerstr. 10 http://www.suse.de/~grimmer/ 90443 Nuernberg, Germany Winter in Arizona falls on a Tuesday this year.
