i think a lot of software that was installed by default in 10.0 was left off 10.2, but any of it you want is readily available if you get your "installation sources" correct i've got suse 10.2 and i got curious after seeing this thread a visit to yast, software management, searched for ncftp and it brought ncftp right to the fore, installed it for me, and i've been happily learning features since -- imagine commandline recall that works in ftp! bookmarks! anyway, i've got the plain jane installation sources: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repo/oss http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repo/non-oss ncftp should have popped right up for you -- what do you have in "Configured Software Catalogs" (under installation sources)? sc
