===== My system was trashed after a YOU update (Fortunately my important files were backed up). I reinstalled suse 8.0 (fresh install) but now every time I try using YOU a little screen appears saying trying to connect to ftp://suse.com (or something like that) then it disapears and takes me back to YAST control center. I cannot even get YOU up to change download sites. I know that there were a quite a few posts with problems with YAST a few weeks back.
I would greatly appreciate a solution to this problem. I have no desire to reinstall this system again.
Thanks in advance
Harry A.
