Unhappy Updating suse 9.0n with you


Hi everybody!!!

I'm trying to update my suse and the packages installed with the help of YOU (YAST2 ONLINE UPDATE), I know that my closest ftp server from suse is:

"ftp://ftp.oregonstate.edu/pub/suse/suse/i386/update/9.0/patches"

I know how to change the server to this one in YOU, but I get this error:

error Unable to get './i386/update/9.0/patches/directory.3' or to read the directory (Couldn't cd to i386).

Any ideas or suggestions?

Note: I'm using SUSE 9.0, Duron 1.3 Ghz, 512 MB Ram and using a dial up 56k modem, this is one of the reasons why I need the closest server to update.

Thanks in advance?
