Thanks Bob. I have to laugh. I am sure some people wondered if I had a clue. I 
assure all that I went through all the usual maneuvers multiple times, most 
assuredly including the online update configuration. I am running 10.2 and 
have been a Suse user since 5.? (and linux user since 0.99pl6 on my Amiga 
3000). Anyway, this morning I ran online update configuration again and, 
instead of opening a browser, it told me it was adding a download source and 
all appears to be well. I suspect it was just a matter of my registration, 
done last night, "taking". Thanks to all.
