    Smile Problems using smart to install rpms in suse 10.1 i586

    Hallo!I have been trying to learn how to install rpms (in suse 10.1 i586) form the internet via smart package manager.I provided a new channel e.g. http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/suser-guru/rpm/10.1/ on the YAST2 repository but when I update the channel the following error appears

    Failed acquiring information for 'Guru 10.1':
    http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/suser-guru/...media.1/media: timed out

    What could be the problem?Is it that my internet connection is too low that there is a timeout in the conncection.

    Please provide a solution to my problem and I will be infinitely grateful.Thanks in advance.
