I am consistently getting extremely SLOW response when I attempt to do online updates using Yast (manual or automatic). It sits at the 'Initializing for FTP/HTTP update. One moment please....' for more than an hour sometimes. I have tried several sites on the list. I am brand new to SuSE and wondered if this is a known issue or if there is some problem that I need to fix. The linux box (8.1) is at my work location so has a 10MB connection to the internet. I see NO speed issues when I simply browse to the web. Ideas please??!!!
