On http://en.opensuse.org/Additional_YaST_Package_Repositories there are an awefull lot of links to ftp.suse.com e,g. ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE and ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/mozilla
These pathes will most likely disappear in the next weeks, when we run our build service in productive mode ...
http://download.opensuse.org nicely points towards a mirror, However I do not believe ftp.suse.com has such a thing.
As ftp.suse.com is very slow, it is a very bad idea to have all those links on such a prominet page. Is there a general way around it? Otherwise I will rewrite the page so that it will point to the mirrors page, making direct linking not possible.
you can use http://download.suse.com/i386/.... for example to get a mirror redirection. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany email: adrian@suse.de
