Thank you. :slight_smile:

Guess you got it :wink:

I had the same problem, fixed now thanks to changing the server. Is there any disadvantage to one server over another. Should I be looking to change back in a week or two once they have sorted their problems out.

There are a number of mirrors
Some are listed here: Additional package repositories - openSUSE
The one you have should be good. Sometimes users like to pick a mirror closer to them geographically.

Is this a permanent change? I am getting the error too and am just expecting server to come back up.

Same problem here but http://packman.iu-bremen.de/suse/11.3/ does work.
