No. It needs to have access to the Internet to contact the registration server, which yours apparently does not. Either that, or you just have a bad DNS setup on your system. If this is deliberate for this particular system, you need to set up an SMT server that _does_ have Internet access, and then point your SLES10 system at that. Note that the current version of SMT will only run on Intel/AMD. The next release (1.1) will also run on System z.
