In an effort to save time and reduce overall network traffic I would
like
to be able to download SLES ISO files from Novell from my Linux on z
server
rather than downloading them to my pc and then uploading them to z.

I've looked, without success, for information on how to do this (I
may have
not used the right keywords).

My thought is that I need to use a X server on my windows pc to
connect to
the z server and then open a web browser on the z to connect to Novell
where I'd sign in and then download.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Wget?  You can pass credentials to wget, I'm pretty sure.  Or use a
text-mode browser like w3m.  As long as the Novell site doesn't
require javascript you should be OK.
