I just finished an install of SuSE 9.0. I ran autoupdate and it told me it needed to download a Yast online update fix before it could download any other patches. I ran that patch and restarted Yast. Now, whenever I try to access either of the default servers (Ireland and Germany), I'm asked for authentication. I tried anonymous with my email address but I was denied access. I have a Novell SuSE portal account and tried that as well but it didn't like that either. Does anyone know of a Yast server I can point to that doesn't require specific authentication or where I can obtain a legitimate login for my server? I haven't had trouble with other SuSE installs but I have to have this specific version for an app I'm running. The yast version is:

yast2-online-update-2.9.18-0.2

Looks like you apparently have to use the username and password of the account that registered the product.
