I get the same error no matter which host I try. I wonder if there could be some version issues in yast2 with 7.3. Since I installed it, when I try and install more packages each time it asks for a different CD it complains about the version number not being quite right. Since I'm assuming it's dependant on the version number to find the patches dir, maybe the problems are related. Any thoughts? -peter On Thursday 12 September 2002 07:36 pm, Richard E.
