Thanks for the reply, yea I know YOU and zypper works the only reason I set up 
the automatice online updates is that I am not always able to get access to 
the machine (both physically and remotely) and knowing that any security 
updates that gets released makes me feel better about leaving the machine up.  
Is this issue in the bugzilla?
