guess proxying is not overly popular amongst openSUSE users? (that
it doesn't work might explain that of course :-) )

I can think of two reasons that would prevent me noticing:

(1) I haven't tried any 11.4 installs yet :)

Hehe, I have a suspicion the issue might date a bit further back.

(2) I'm not the network admin guy who would notice that the proxy was
bypassed, and he doesn't do linux installs so wouldn't notice either
:(

With your email-address, you probably have a really thick internet pipe,
otherwise you would notice. Here in the office I have a 6Mbit
downstream, so the difference between internet download and hitting the
cache is quite significant.
