I have 7.0, have updated urpmi & RpmDrake to the versions that come with
7.1 + deps (rpm,rpmtools,popt - IIRC). Wget is installed. 
I am trying to get the packages at:
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/linux/mandrake/7.1/Mandrake/RPMS/

Which is what I enter in "add location of packages-->HTTP"
For Location of hdlist if I leave it at:
../base/hdlist.cz2

I get (pasted from konsole):

[root@localhost /root]# rpmdrake
--21:22:12-- 
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au:80/pub/linux/mandrake/7.1/Mandrake/RPM

If I look at /var/lib/urpmi/hdlist.http_1.cz2
it is a html file containing: 
"Index of /pub/linux/mandrake/7.1/Mandrake/RPMS"
& hyperlinks to them.....

URL of /base/hdlist(s) is:
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/linux/mandrake/7.1/Mandrake/base/

& in it there is:
    hdlist                  11-Mar-2000 16:08  13.8M  
    hdlist.cz2              18-May-2000 03:06   3.4M  
    hdlist2.cz2             18-May-2000 03:08   1.2M  
    hdlist3.cz2             18-May-2000 03:08   382k  
    hdlist4.cz2             18-May-2000 03:09   515k  
    hdlists                 18-May-2000 03:09     1k  

Can anyone tell me what I've got wrong ?

TIA
