if I delete that installation source, and add all the correct details I can see YaST make the FTP connection and get some kind of package summary using the correct username and password .. when that finishes it adds the source details to the list of installation sources, but it changes my paswword into "PASSWORD".
I can't check right now, but I think that when you select where to download from, in you, advanced, it is possible to adjust such things. Perhaps have a look at /etc/suseservers and /etc/sysconfig/onlineupdate Another place to look at could be the default configuration (/etc or /root) for wget, which is used by YOU for the actual download. wget can be configured to use certains user:paswords pairs for each host, but I don't know exactly how. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
