Hello all,

I am having difficulty with SUSE 10 accessing the network. I can quite happily browse my network if I use IP addresses. If, however, I use machine names as I would in Windows, it gives an error message saying, "Could not connect to host for smb://machine_name"

What am I missing here?

Secondly, I am having difficulty sorting out SUSE repositories. Many of the ones I have report that they are unavailable. This also means that I am unable to add to my software as YAST cannot find them!

I noticed that there is the possibility of using apt-get, but I am not sure how to get that started or indeed if it is a good idea!

Is there a list of up to date repositories that I can use, or does anyone have a better idea?!

Thanks



Ed
