Till about 40 days ago I was happily using YOU through a NT proxy... Now I decided it was time to use a Linux box as a proxy and I was trying to fix all security holes of a box through YOU to prepare it to be my gateway. But I can't anymore use YOU successfully. It starts downloading the mirrors list through HTTP then it downloads the list of patch descriptions but when it reaches 92%, everytime at 92%, it stops telling me "It is not possible to download the patch from this server, try another mirror" (translated from italian), "Bad server response, Disconnected". FTP_PROXY in rc.config is set as it was set when YOU was working. The NT gateway has also NAT and I've tried to disable FTP proxying and disable FTP_PROXY accordingly... with no success. Other FTP programs work and on my gateway log I can see FTP accesses... while when YOU try to update my system it lists the connection as a NAT connection. It seems related to the fact that YaST too was "updated" the last time I did an "Online Update". Any help? pointers? ...then I have to solve a problem with KMail to post with a Open Source email client again. TIA -- Salve Ivan Sergio Borgonovo http://www.webthatworks.it/
