Actually, specifying the userid & password as part of the ftp specification
got us past that problem.  We're using the base ftp service that comes with
redhat 5 that we also used to serve up sles10 without specifying the userid
and password on the ftp parm itself.  So it appears to be reacting
differently between sles10 & sles11.
Now, we are receiving an error after starting the install through yast using
vnc that the sles11/DVD1/media.1/media failed, unrecognizable error,
transfer closed with 62 bytes remaining to be read.  I'm wondering if we
should download the media again from Novell.  Maybe our copy is
incomplete/corrupt.
