Well the reason I ask (and this could be a bug I suppose). I went
and added the ftp respositories to installation source, and it
verified and said it was okay, but the second I chose okay and it
closed, I would immediately go back in, and it had disappeared. That
is why i wondered if something had chanaged.

There are two kinds of updates on SuSE.
1) Security updates, handled with YOU
2) Updating to unsupported ("unstable") or 3. party packages from
various
installation sources, handled with Software management.
This basically hasn't and won't change. But..
SuSEwatcher/YOU will be/has been replaced - with something that
none of us has
really been able to test yet.
"Software management" is also undergoing some major changes - and
specifically
in beta4 it has very little functionality - among other things with
respect
to installation sources and updating. So what you want to do -
especially
being new to this - is relax for now and check out beta5 which is
expected to
be released tomorrow..
Hopefully with a package manager ready for some heavy duty bug
testing ;)
