[opensuse-factory] joke of the day
Hello, I wanted to install the latest factory. When I tried to add an additional install source (for factory-extra), I entered, as usual, the IP address of the server under Server Name. When used OK, I got the following message: "A valid domain name consists of components separated by dots. Each component contains letters, digits, and hyphens. A hypen may nt start or end a component and the last component may not begin with a digit." And the IP address is not accepted. What is supposed to be done by someone without a DNS server for a 192.168.X.X network? This was in the HTTP dialog box, typing in the URL works fine... Bye, CzP --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Adding the entry to /etc/hosts will work. Ken Schneider --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I think IP address should be accepted by YaST. I even can not see any reason why it should be not.
I think you should create a bug report. Not every YaST developer reads that list ...
