Well I am a newby, I had no idea what the heck was going on. I think I have really screwed my system because of lack of communication and my ignorance. If the system depends on a server that is so vulnerable maybe I need another system.
I wouldn't call the servers "so vulnerable" This was a freak occurrence... one time thing due to events well beyond openSUSE/Novell's control.
This could be better handled by putting the re-director on a redundant service such as akamai. Even Microsoft hands stuff over to akamai when they know they are going to get hammered (new service pack release or something). On novell's case all they need is the re-director service hosted on a platform not subject to a single point of failure. Probably too much to ask for a distro provided at a massive net loss. -- ----------JSA--------- Someone stole my tag line, so now I have this rental. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
