Re: YOU on SuSE 8.1

Hi

...

edit /etc/wgetrc and set "passive_ftp = on"

Is this a hint, a workaround OR the official solution/recommendation?

Pardon me for being to slow to wake up but... I've reproduced the same thing here. YaST2 breaks up and all kinds of error messages begin to appear all over the console. Adding the line "passive_ftp=on" doesn't make a difference. Still doesn't download the updates. Maybe I need to re-start something ? Is there a fix for this ? -- Thanks Richard www.sheflug.co.uk
